    When you say "accept IBM extended ASCII", it sounds like you're
    talking about input (from the user's keyboard), but I think you're
    talking about output (from the server).

    If going through a terminal setup through Default User Settings,
    there's an option:

    Does your terminal support IBM extended ASCII (CP437)?

    If you select No, then the BBS will not send mode 7 characters. This
    has to be selected as yes.

    Right and "yes" is the default.
