Thank you for this response.
So, if I am uploading only every 15min that is about 30K of upload a month, even including the 'success<CR,LF>' that comes back.
So of the 130MB used each month, 100MB is "verbose header stuff", and unless I monitor the packets I will never know what it is, and can't do anything about it anyway.
I was afraid that was the fact, and only wanted to know if there was some feasible way to change this.
Thanks again for your input.
