     On October 13, 2004, Winston Smith has received a message which was
titled "New TCPPort replacement".  Eli Sanford seems to have sent it but
I happen to be the author and i didn't even notice this mistake before i
was to late!  ~WEB~ BBSes are new to me, i thought i could tolerate this
interface but the obvious lack of security is what i'd call a deterrent,
in favour of plain old DialUp/~TelNet~ BBSing, i mean...  In any case, i
inclose learlines from the post, it says:  "Mail-ennium/32 v2.0-beta-r1"
and "Mail-ennium/32 v2 Beta Coming Soon! (1:379/1200.0)".  I hope that's
helping.  When you're there, tell the SysOp about his wide-open hole!...

What's the hole? I don't see it. If you're referring to the ability for a 
person to use another person's name on another node, that's nothing new or 
specific to web bbses....
