It's true, no terminal program currently works with GEnie's ZMODEM.  However,
ProTERM's ZMODEM works fine here on Portal for me, and also works fine on a
local MS-DOS BBS.  Greg Schaefer, the author of ProTERM, is reputedly working
on making ProTERM compatible with GEnie -- no word on when that'll be do
though.

As for EasyLink: I've heard it's a pretty darn good terminal program.  Its
main competition won't be MouseTalk, though, it'll be ProTERM.  EasyLink is
the only terminal program I'd consider giving up ProTERM for, basically because
of its excellent macros.
