I run telemate in a dos window with no problem at all.  I've got a pif file
setup with 480k required and 640k desired, windowed and set to background 
operation.  Are you running in enhanced, standard, or real mode?  How much
memory do you have?  I'm assuming the 550k you mentioned is the amount of
memory you have when you run a dos application.  If so, then that should be
enough since telemate 'only' requires 480k.  You might be getting the
insufficient memory error from not having enough memory for windows to free
up and run telemate.  Sorry I couldn't help you more.  I too am impressed
with telemate, so much so that I haven't found any other comm program to
beat it (even any of the windows comm pgms).
