OUCH! I hate it when that happens. I'm still trying to get the
Os2Shares and DosShares keywords in SIO2K to cooperate (they're the
counterpart of the - parameter in SIO 1.x.) I had it working (mostly)
when running EleBBS/2 with DOS doors, but when I add the mailer into the
mix (also OS/2 native), I get dropped carriers when returning from DOS
doors or the doors can't detect carrier when loading. I can't use the
SIO 1.60d version, since VMODEM in that version is broken with respect
to recent versions of TCP/IP.
