Re: (ASCEND) 6.0.9 an E-Mail, now TNT 2.1.3

I had some of the same problems when I went to an engineering rev of the
2.1.4 code.  Download speeds were fine, but users sending larger files and
e-mails would have their connections time out to the servers.  I
downgraded back to 2.1.3 and everything looks fine now (except multiple
HDLC cards will cause major havock on your system -- if you have mutliple
HDLC cards, I would suggest downing all but one -- it worked for me).
