Here is a transcript, for those who are interested. Note that the modem that answers is V.32/MNP4. Also note that there are several calls involved here; after each failed attempt to connect to a remote host, the modem would disconnect. I've deleted from this trace the intermediate call progress information (it was always the same). l This seems to work JUST FINE for access AT&T Mail -- at 9600bps, V.32 (which you can't do through their 800 number, I don't think). I'm not a cracker, so I didn't try to discover what "APPLICATION" the "phila" host might have been looking for. -- Toby atdt9501288 CARRIER 9600 PROTOCOL: ALT COMPRESSION: NONE CONNECT 19200 WELCOME TO AT&T INFORMATION ACCESS SERVICE Please Sign-on: h Enter "h" or "help" followed by a topic.

I am posting this in the Telecom Archives for further reference by interested parties. Look for the 'exploring.950.1288' file. The archives are available by anonymous ftp from lcs.mit.edu. Unfortunatly, 950-1288 from Chicago winds up in an intercept message all the time, 'all circuits are busy now, try your call again later please' ... I assume this is incorrect, but don't know who can / will correct it. Maybe our reader from IBT in Springfield, IL will see this and get it fixed. He was able to get 312-504 working correctly from Rogers Park Coin ... maybe he knows who to see about 950-1288.
