Ah, I doubt "rz"...do you *even have* "rz" on the machine???
Most likely, "umodem", similar to xmodem.
Seriously consider going to something else, possibly pcomm.
With pcomm you can put in any external protocol you with, including zmodem.
I run it on mine and like it much, *much* better than the phone manager
and umodem...I also run a Hayes 2400 (wishing for a Telebit) that makes
life much nicer than 1200 baud.

See the current batch...there was a post from U. of Washington(?)
they have 9+ sets of 3.5 and the manuals.
