For ANYBODY who has a problem with their TO line, if you are
using a Windows based comm package, don't forget the clipboard.
You should be able to highlight any address on your screen,
press Ctrl-Ins to copy it to the clipboard, then when you get
to the To: prompt, press Shift-Ins to paste. This works in
almost any Windows based communications software, including the
otherwise wimpy Terminal program that comes with Windows.
At home, I use it with Crosstalk. At work, I use it with LAN
WorkPlace's Host Presenter.
Meanwhile, if you use lowly DOS software, well, you might
consider the option of upgrading to the '90s...
