Was ka9q for PPP or only for SLIP?  This question would be relevant to DOS as
well as OS/2.  I remember looking through Hobbes (http://hobbes.nmsu.edu) for
dialers better than Dial Other Internet Providers and its included PPP.EXE but
never saw a KA9Q/2.  I remember Web Explorer failed on many Web sites, not
supporting frames, Java, Javascript, redirection and some other things.  I even
used Ultimail Lite for about 80 days in early 1998 until it got stuck once in
April downloading the same 18 messages every 15 minutes.  Then I tried OS/2 port
of popclient, already downloaded, downloaded 79 messages, and never again used
Ultimail Lite.  But later (1999 or 2000), when encountering a message having a
line of 1024 characters, popclient would download up to and including that
message and then terminate with a segment violation.  UKA_PPP then came to the
rescue, using COMTCP.EXE in directory \TCPIP\DOS\BIN.

I notice this line in the headers from news.cis.dfn.de

Xref: uni-berlin.de demon.ip.support.pc:1989 demon.ip.support.os2:29

Is demon.ip.support.os2 a new newsgroup, or is it just new with news.cis.dfn.de?
