Using Zmodem. Iãsuccessfully did a couple uploads yesterday to my test BBS and to aãcouple other live BBSs on the internet and it worked using Xmodem. So Iãthought I found the issue. But, nope. Could not upload to any of themãtoday with Xmodem or anything else (usually try Zmodem).ãã2) I am trying to upload to other systems like Synchronet . . . well, Iãguess that is it. Just synchronet and mystic BBSs.ããAs a work-around in Linux I'm using FQTERM, a Chinese BBS terminal app,ãto upload my REP packets to Synchronet and Mystic BBSs using Zmodem.ãYou're reading this because FQTERM uploaded it via Zmodem.ã... So easy, a child could do it. Child sold separately.ã--- MultiMail/Linux v0.49ã þ Synchronet þ realitycheckBBS -- http://realitycheckBBS.orgã

I dropped back to the official 1.1 release and have no ãproblems uploading now.
