This document is provided as "For your information" and as is.

The format of the files used for groups and recipient lists is
the same.  Each file contains fixed length fields terminated by a
single null (zero) byte.

Bytes     0-1 Count of number of entries

The first two bytes of the file contain an interger count of the
number of entries.  The interger is stored in Hexadecimal format,
least significant byte first.  The example below has two entries.
In a file with 99 entries, the first two bytes would be 63 00.

The fields for each entry are:

Bytes 2-21   Descriptive name (20 Charactures)
      22     Hex 00
      23-49  Voice Phone Number (27 digits)
      50     Hex 00
      51-77  Fax Phone Number (27 Digits)
      78     Hex 00
      79-86  Polling Password (8 Charactures)
      87     Hex 00
      88     Hex 4E (N) or Hex 59 (Y) (Polling Yes or No)
      89-92  Hex 00

Un-used positions within the name, phone number, and password
fields must be filled with blanks (Hex 20).

The sample  file below is 184 bytes long.  It has two entries.
The format shown is similar to that used by DEBUG.

The first column is the hexadecimal offset within the file,
beginning at zero.  The next columns contain the headecimal
values for each byte.  The right hand column shows the ASCII
character values for each byte.

Note that all legal dialing charactures and separators [such as -
, ; ()] can be included in the phone number field.
