Well thanks for the idea but this causes my dialup dynamic addrs'd ppp
to give me an address of 127.0.0.1 which don't work to well and right
now the current kernel is causing acms to core dump when I go back to
my screwy method to invoke acm.

I have a theory that when I can get acm to work as it should then my
other problem getting fetchmail->sendmail->.forward->procmail will
also work <G>.
