[ENGLISH] Crosspoint *SITS AND WAITS* after successful mail transfer

Ok, folks, I have another Crosspoint question.

I have a *working* "multiuser" crosspoint setup; for now, only the 'f'
protocol works, which gives about 920 cps on a 9600 connection, on text
files. This is not too great, but phone call is *local*, so this is not a
problem. 

I have changed most of the wait times for the modem to smaller, more 
reasonable values. For example, the "wait between redials is set to 8 
seconds" as that is more than sufficient here.

Now the QUESTION: When I do a "Netcall", modem connects, uucp.scr script
is used, mail files are transferred, successfully.  THEN CROSSPOINT SIMPLY
SITS AND WAITS! For as long as 100-120 seconds. Only after this time it
starts to process the files it just downloaded. How can I reduce this wait
to more like 15-30 seconds?  What parameter do I need to change?  This is
IMMEDIATELY after UUCICO has finished transferring files. 

Thanks a lot. --raj (raj@shiela.com)

I think this is a problem of your link, talk with him, if he doen't want  
install the g-protocol.
with text files it will be possible to use the modems V.42b online  
compression, have a look in your handbook of the modem and set it, don't  
forget to increase the Baud rate fron your computer to the Modem.

hm, which OS are you using?
I had a simliar problem a few days ago under OS2, the DOS-Box was  
crashed...
with DOS it should work fine, perhaps the load of your link is very high,  
so it can't serve his communication ports fast?
