Except transfers work fine with no nested telnet using SIO.  Going directly to it works perfect.

Now that the weekend is basically here, will try setting up TelnetDoor/Gamesrv in front of Mystic and then try an xfer.  Very interested to know the results of that one, too.

Appreciate your help in understanding this and if there is a work-around.
