FWIW: i would only use it manually on your long message containing packets to split those messages into a new pkt which your squish should then be able to consume... i would do this only on those specific packets so that it affects only your system and not others connected to you... then place the new packet where your squish can get to it and you should now get your previously long netmail as multiple messages identified with the ^ASPLIT protocol from the old FSC-0047.001 proposal
