      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A43       MSGID: 3:770/100 9c5116a1       REPLY: 1:3634/12.73 5ca0f072       TZUTC: 1300       On 31 Mar 2019 at 12:53p, mark lewis pondered and said...                ml> well, there's the problem... there must be a net on the first address of        ml> each line... if they are all in net1, it should look like this:              Hi Mark.              This is not an area of expertise for me but I went looking for info on the       fstc.org site and found this              [snip]              Seen-by Lines               There can be many seen-by lines at the end of Conference        Mail messages, and they are the real "meat" of the control        information. They are used to determine the systems to        receive the exported messages. The format of the line is:               SEEN-BY: 132/101 113 136/601 1014/1               The net/node numbers correspond to the net/node numbers of        the systems having already received the message. In this way        a message is never sent to a system twice. In a conference        with many participants the number of seen-by lines can be        very large. This line is added if it is not already a part        of the message, or added to if it already exists, each time        a message is exported to other systems. This is a REQUIRED        field, and Conference Mail will not function correctly if        this field is not put in place by other Echomail compatible        programs.              [snip]              There does not seem to be any reference to requiring that NET be displayed at       the start of each SEEN-BY line - perhaps I should be looking at another       reference doc?              Best, Paul              --- E:avon@bbs.nz ------ W:bbs.nz ---       --- K:keybase.io/avon --------------              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A43 2019/03/03 (Windows/32)        * Origin: Agency BBS | Dunedin, New Zealand | agency.bbs.nz (3:770/100)       SEEN-BY: 15/2 57/0 103/705 123/1970 153/250 154/10 203/0 221/0 226/17       SEEN-BY: 226/100 229/107 354 426 452 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 267/800       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 292/624 854 317/2 3 322/757 342/200 393/68 396/45       SEEN-BY: 423/120 712/848 770/0 1 10 100 330 340 772/0 1 500 2452/250       PATH: 770/100 1 280/464 229/426           |
