Does it actually 'just hangup' when doing the UUCP transfer-- thus causing the
alarms?  Here is why I ask...

I have an ATI 9600etc/c modem, and UUCP with a T2500.  When I connect at
9600 with V.32 but no MNP or V.42bis it works flawlessly.  When I use
compression/correction it will connect fine, but will hang up (causing Alarms)
after awhile (after 1-2 min).  

I've tried ALL possible combinations of baud-rates/settings/handshaking with
no avail.  The modem works fine when connecting to ALL other machines.  

ATI Tech support Babbles worse than the V.P. Danny-Q...

So, I am wondering if your problem and mine are related.  If they are, it
sounds like a T2500 problem, but who knows?  

Oh.  The T2500 I was talking to had "the most recent ROM's"...
