That was what got me the first time around, the time period wasn't
suitable.  It worked at first, then after a weekend things got thrown
back at me.  I forgot about that at the time I first set things up.

For some home uses, with a single phone line that you want kept free
most of the time, and people that do internet stuff irregularly,
networks may stay off-line for quite some time.

Thankfully that situation was remedied when broadband became reasonably
available.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
