Which Version do you use? Current are 1.61b (DOS) and 1.01 (OS/2)

This does not work with every BBS-System. I know it works with
BayBox (from BayCom-Group), and DieBox (by NordLink). I think FBB
should work also, but i can`t check it.

Maybe they use a System like DieBox ?

Yep, it also works on a FBB-type bbs, but ONLY if the local sysop has
set up his listings compatible with GP. It has something to do with
the number of spaces between the From:, To:, etc... fields.
