Rob Swindell (digital man) Posted this on the Synchronet home page: "I've released a new program for Synchronet External Plain Old Telephone System (POTS) Support.

The program is named SEXPOTS, with homage to the very successful SEXYZ project. This program adds dial-up modem support to any Windows TCP/Socket/Telnet-based BBS (e.g. Synchronet-Win32). Deuce has a *nix version in the works and has also recently added dial-up modem support to SyncTERM to complete the old-school BBS experience using actual modems! Vertrauen can now be dialed directly at 951-549-9994"

previous version of TMO, please read the documentation as it is not completely
backwards compatible with the older versions' data files."

Nice to see that big corperations are thinking about BBS's as the answer to there communications. Good Read. (Someone needs to add in a comment spam filter though)

"In the mid-80s, I was a BBS junkie. BBS is short for Bulletin Board System. It was a terminal program hosted on computers over analog phone lines. It was primitive, slow, and often frustrating, with plenty of dropped connections and busy signals. It was non-graphical, text-based. By the late 1980s, I had an internet email account, surfed gopherspace, participated in message boards, and read newsgroups, thanks to an ISP in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

VADVBBS.com has three releases today: VTIC v1.0, VPost 1.4 and VUpload v1.3. VTIC is a new port of the old DOS utility. I have fixed several issues that caused it to not work properly. VPost and VUpload have been rewritten as 32-bit console applications to allow easier updating in the future. Be sure to read the docs for all three programs since the command line parameters have changed.

Thanks to Tim and Roger for the input and testing of these programs.
