Hello mark,

AI>> In all my experience packet, areafix and filefix passwords have
AI>> been case insensitive.

ml> this is because traditionally, all FTN software uppercased everything
ml> ;)

I read that Internet Rex is case sensitive with packet passwords.

I have always entered passwords in my own config in upper case.. maybe that's
why I never saw any issues. I can enter the password in lower or mixed case if
needed by a link but no one has ever asked me to do this.. so far.. ;)

Ttyl :-),
