I hope this has gotten fixed. From my memory of Hayes modems (admittedly
back when 300 baud was common), the + + + escape is supposed to really be
'(1 second no data transfer) + + + (one second data transfer)'. Mainly so
things like this won't happen.

All that needs to happen is for the delay detection to get added.

Also, I'd hope that this only worked for messages sent from the DTE, not
over the modem link!

Take care,

Bill
