Question on the serial driver in FreeBSD

First off, does anyone know why the list isn't taking
e-mail from google mail? 
I've sent this message three times now from my google
account and it still
hasn't gotten through.  So, I'm trying from this account. 
Please not that this
account isn't part of the freebsd-questions list though. 
Please respond to

Hello everyone,

Can anyone tell me if the serial driver in FreeBSD supports
hardware flow
control?  I'm still working on my program for serial
communications and someone
I'm getting some help from mentioned that there is some
question as to whether
or not the FreeBSD driver supports hardware flow control
internally, or
something.  I was hoping that someone more knowledgable with
the internals of
FreeBSD (and with serial devices) could answer this for me.

Thanks,
Andy

Easy there, friend-- your earlier messages from gmail.com
did go through, but 
nobody replied to them yet.

As far as I know, FreeBSD supports hardware flow control
just fine if the 
underlying UART (nominally a 16550) does (which is normally
the case). 
Perhaps reading "man termios" about CCTS_OFLOW
and CRTS_IFLOW about RTS/CTS 
interactions and disabling IXON/IXOFF would be of
interest...
