Ok, but what with all those nos'es (JNOS, TNOS) etc which
people uses? We want LZW in SMTP,POP etc. just because
it was previously in JNOS and TNOS and other xNOS'es
software! Do you really think that people immediately
change their programs for some with 'new' compression?
TNOS is extremely unstable, and in my case this is only
reason I want LZW in POP and SMTP serwers on Linux!
