- It seems that when you download the .inf file from the WEB some of the
- lines get split. I got mine to work by editing it in notepad and joining
- the split lines back. It took hours, better solution is to get the file
- off ftp.usr.com using a binary transfer.

- files I might be able to build a functional voice mail system.
