    The  UPLOAD  CREDIT FACTOR provides a way of rewarding  your
    users for uploading files to you.  If this value is set to a
    non-zero  value,  after  each upload session,  the  user  is
    granted that many seconds per minute of upload time.  So, if
    you set the credit factor to 30 (seconds), and a user spends
    10  minutes uploading,  he/she would be granted an  extra  5
    minutes for that session. Note that during uploads the timer
    is "frozen" in addition to this bonus.

    When a user gets a list of files in a file area,  the format
    of  a  file  entry  is  the  file  name,  length,  date  and
    description. It is possible to omit the date from each line,
    thus making it possible to have more verbose descriptions by
    setting SHOW FILE DATES to "No".

    Note that the asterisk normally displayed immediately  after
    the date which indicates the file is new since the last log-
    on is still displayed.

    When  a  file  is uploaded using a batch  protocol  such  as
    Zmodem, or Ymodem, the original date of the file is normally
    preserved when the file is saved in the upload area. This is
    of little use if the file was originally created in 1987, so
    RemoteAccess will,  if the RESET UPLOAD FILE DATES option is
    enabled,  reset  the  date stamp of the file to the date  on
    which it was uploaded.

    When a  user displays a list of files, the default action is
    to  show missing files as  "<MISSING>". The next two options
    determine whether these missing  files are displayed, and if
    so  what  message  is  displayed. {+}  The  message  is only
    configurable in the registered version.

    It  is  possible to disable uploads when the amount of  free
    space on your upload drive falls below a preset  level.  For
    example, to disable uploads if there is less than 1 megabyte
    free, set MINIMUM UPLOAD SPACE to 1000 (kilobytes).

    If the SCAN NEW FILES  AT LOGON option is enabled,  the user
    will be given the opportunity to run a check for files which
    are new since his/her last call.
