Why not? The BBS preceeds Fidonet and Fidonet mailers. Before Fidonet mailers always listened and answered the phone all by themselves. hey still did in the early days of Fido. There was a BBS and there was a mailer. Only one of them run at the time. The mailer during ZMH, the BBS the rest of the time.
It was only with the coming of JoHo's Frontdoor that one could do both at the same time. rontdoor answered the line and passed the connection to the mailer when it was determined to be a human caller. But I very much doubt that anyone actually removed the abilty to answer the line all by itself from a BBS.

BF> No, Argus plus Netfoss, but I think the IPv6 is thanks to Relay6.
Ah, now that you mention it, I want to try this Relay6. The netsh method does not work all that well on my system. Where can I get Relay6? Can I download it somewhere? Can you drop it in my inbound?

Me trying it out? I don't think so. My philosophy is "goodbye is goodbye". BBSs, modem over POTS, I have left it all behind. No turning back for me.

OK... I too have too numbers. But I prefer to have them both available for voice.

The price sound very reasonable.
BF> so why give one of them up?
To decomplicate your system by dropping things you no longer use. When I converted my system from AMA to BSO, I took the opportunity to lean it down and only take along what I really needed. So I dropped POTS, I dropped InterMail, I dropped Irex, I dropped O/T-Track and some more stuff from the previous century.
