Greg:

Last night while I was xperimenting with POPck, I was using winsock
GetIP
to return the host address; It worked fine. When the connection dropped,
it reported  (I think) 127.0.0.1 (localhost). Before dialing, there was
something else (error code?)

I can't get it to work at all tonight. Too tired to see the screen
clearly,
I guess. Tomorrow is another day.
