    So would we expect to see a Windows and or Linux
    versions... or am I over
    thinking it.

    I would not use the term expect but that is my goal. Still lots of
    work
    to be completed.

    I was part of the Beta group helping Peter out with
    InterMail before he
    bolted for ... whatever he bolted for. Anyway, good luck


    I know there are others developing new systems as well and they are quite good but I want to finish the platform out. The GUI platform is a full rewrite.

    Thanks!

    Unless you were going to put in BinkP servicexs in Intermail, OI would just consider porting Interecho over to these other platforms. Now if you were going to port it to OS/2 and could d othe same thing, I would be happy with that as well :)

    but, some networks and system still use telnet over virtual modems (such as WINSnet) so some modem functionality would still be desireable.

    Good to see some developement going into BBS software. InterMail & InterEcho were/are good software. I have my registration codes redy... I have an Arca/OS2 VM already running.... If you need a hand testing things out let me know.

    on FrontDoor

    Just because you do not hear from JoHo does not mean he is not working
    on it. :)
