Honestly, I don't know:
1. No one is connecting to *my* mailer using Irex, this was was determined
through debugging a sysops issues with his links. The only version of IRex in
use during this problem report was 2.29.
2. We've since changed BinkIT to only send a 16-byte CRAM challenge to resolve
the incompatibility, so unless we find a guinea pig running versions of IRex
*newer* than 2.29 and willing to experiment with a link running BinkIT, we'll
never know.
