    please ignore all the gated postings from comp.os.os2.advocacy...
    they were gated without prior permission and that gateway is being
    shut down as we speak... sorry for the problems, folks :?

    Good morning Mark,

    you are welcome... i can only imagine the surprise at the huge
    download you faced for messages in this area only to find not a one
    of them useful to anyone... not even the original posters :/

    I was still asleep when my system polled the Fido host and when I
    downloaded the QWK packet to my OLR I didn't react to any special
    delay.

    My only reaction came when I noted that there were 100 messages in the
    OS2 echo but soon I found out that they had nothing to do with OS/2.

    Have a nice day,

    Holger

    really? someone upstream from me must have stopped them, then... unless maybe you feed from the system that did the spewage? my main system only got 500 of them and that's all that it was able to pass on to my downlinks...

    Maybe some were dupes and got sorted out or maybe somebody has a roof
    set to how much is forwarded in a single echo.
