SubjectTCP/IP-handling


I was asked to send this message to this list. So here it is:

Please, contact by email, if you want more information. I will test this
program out using 2.0.24, when I'm ready to boot. I'm afraid that situation
is just as bad as previously (high traffic) and that's why I'm going to
unsubscribe...
