Procomm, Telix and a lot of other communicationprograms experience a
clash of keys when you use them in a Unix-environment because they
need them for the dialing directory, redialing, host mode, ...

The only communicationprogram I know of that let you use most of the
Alt combinations is AT100 (a vt100 emulationprogram for the IBM PC and
compatibles by AmbraSoft) but AT100 on the other hand don't have a
dialing directory or anything like it! There shouldn't be any problems
using an external Zmodem program (like DSZ) with AT100.
