ml> can i/we assume that this is on the standard telnet port or do we

SD> Standard port.  From what it looks like from running overnight,
SD> things look like they're working as far as the system answering the
SD> phone. :)

that's good! :)

ml> that depends on your "shim"... in my case, with Warp 3 Connect, i use
ml> Ray Gwinn's SIO package and "dialing" an IP number is no different
ml> than dialing a POTS number as far as FD is concerned... the only
ml> "problem" that need be contended with is special characters in the
ml> dialing string... ie: dots instead of dashes and similar...

SD> The dialing string problem is what I'm concerned about.  Like you,
SD> I run SIO 1.60d, so I know I can get out with no problems.

well, the only other thing is if the init string faciliates "normal"
answering... a standard init string and SIO on telnet or POTS should easily
answer either with no problems at all if the POTS side is direct to the modem
and then to BT...

SD> What I'm wondering is if BT might get confused when I want to send
SD> mail via POTS and what not.  When I get the POTS set up going, if
SD> there's problems, I'll probably pull BT off the telnet node.

SD> Later,
