	Silly question but I've not run into systems using a different 
login name from the mail address...

	whiplas1 vs whiplash

	I have, however, heard of systems which prefix/postfix the 
address with an extra character to signal that it should come up in 
SLIP/PPP mode. But that extra character has to be known to the dialer -- 
it isn't hidden in the background...
