I am having trouble hooking up either a US Robotics V.32 or Dual Standard
modem w/ Interactive 386/ix v2.2.  There are two problems.  First, when a
person logs out of the system, the modem does not hang up for about 30-60
seconds.  Sometimes the RD and SD lights flicker until the modem hangs up.
Second, mail will not go out.  I have tried Uutry to a couple of systems, and
after sending a login name, I get garbage while the password: prompt is 
expected.  It breaks at the same place every time on every system I have tried
calling (A hayes 2400 smartmodem, a TB2500, and an unknown 2400 baud modem).
Yet I can use cu to call and login with no problem.  I'm afraid I don't
understand.  If anyone is using one of the new USR modems (w/ v.42/v.42bis)
w/ ISC's unix, or any Sys V r3.2 unix, please let me know how you have the
modem configured and how you have /usr/lib/uucp/Dialers and /etc/gettydefs
set up.  Thanks for any help you can give!

ps:  I previously was using a hayes smartmodem 2400 w/ no problems.
