I too had this problem of not being able to dial out, how did I solve it ?

TURN OFF FLOW control to the modem.  If you need it, let me know and I 
will look up what window that setting is under.

NO you can not multi-task to DOS while you download in TELEMATE, but you
can use an editor and view a file or scroll backwards while you are
downloading a file (ie look through the "new files" list while you are
downloading the next file.

The auto z-modem feature is nice, just tell your remote to send the file
and telemate auto-recognizes the download, puts you in download mode and
starts it.  no keystrokes or mouse clicks needed.

The bi-modem script that came with TELEMATE does not work, I replaced
it with a batch file that calles bimenu, and it bi-menu automatically went
into the upload/download mode.
