   what tool are you using that creates 1.MSG when a higher numbered MSG exists?   
   the next message created should be at the end of the line, not at the   
   beginning... UNLESS (read on)...   
      
    JE> I can't figure this out, why message 1.msg is never created for the   
    JE> door files. Any help would be appreciated.   
      
   what is the content of that 1.MSG file? is it actually a message or is it the   
   highwater mark instead? traditionally speaking, 1.MSG is not a message but a   
   holder for the highest/last processed MSG file counter... it is known as the   
   highwater mark... some software chose to use other files for this purpose to   
   avoid confusion but then you run into problems similar to this...   
      
   then comes the question of are those MSG files removed after they have been   
   processed or are they simply marked as having been sent? what is removing the   
   1.MSG file? it should never be removed if it is the highwater mark... for one   
   thing, it tells the next MSG number to be used if there are no MSGs in the   
   directory...   
      
   what specific door games are these you are having problems with?
