It sounds like you aren't doing anything right :) Finger is Finger,
Telnet is Telnet, Finger != Telnet :)  To do the post thing you need to
type:
finger allatsea@post

et voila! You can just type 'F' instead of finger BTW.

I think it SHOULD be able to but as I had an ST I never managed it,
anyway 19200 should be able to handle about 4k/sec (if the port can take
it) if compression is on and about 1.8k/sec with it off, I only used NOS
0.42 and could acheive about 1600cps with the connection dedicated to
news this is with 14.4 modem & STe.
