However I now wonder if there's an issue with the requested Connect membership number.  When I log onto the site now it presents a 4-digit account number.  Its not the same one as carried from DECus to Encompass to Connect originally, and none of my recent emails from Connect include a member number.

If you think it's the Connect number that is the problem, go to Eisner and create an account there and get a DECUServe member number.

I just received new PAKs good through 24-Jul-2020.

They came in via the DECUServe request based on the email address used.
