    Ed,

    I used FTP to send a REP packet I made with MultiMail DOS and
    FTP to get a QWK packet to read new mail from this BBS when my
    XPbox had DSL.

    Used a BATch file to start a FRP script for either way..

    Just thought I would open my big mouth about what I have done
    on XP ( notWin10) Ed

    Unfortunately, anything before Windows 10 is no longer supported,
    and Windows 10 will join that in October.

    The previous BBS computer (which belonged to my late Mom) was
    running Windows 10 on it, but I think the motherboard and CPU just
    "ran out of steam"...and it wouldn't surprise me if some of the
    Windows Updates contributed to that.

    I tried installing Linux Mint Cinnamon, but the motherboard was
    too old.
