In pskmail the receiver tells the sender what to send next. This is necessary to prepend missing blocks to the next frame. This way you can realize a full duplex k-to-k mode. When downloading a file on a good channel you send 8 blocks x 64 = 512 characters in a frame before you listen for the ack. At PSK250 this is faster than reading speed. > I have seen some multiipath, especially when I have tested PSK31 on VHF, > but much of that was from aircraft.

Typically happens when F1 and F2 propagation takes place simultaneously, especially in mountainous areas. At home I live near Eindhoven airport and the airplane echo doppler also happens on 30 meters. You don't see it on the S-meter, but the 2 signals corrupt the phase completely which is visible on the quality indicator. At this moment IS0GRB-3 is still S8 on 10148.25, noise (from switching power supplies in neighbouring campers) is S5, with peaks to S9+10.
