      > into the bcfg4 setup but it send out on my Boss his node number?              No it doesn't. Message packet file has correct node + point number. The origin       line has your node + point number.              >> @MSGID: 2:292/624 a1590824              Yes, as it should be.              First of all, you should read fidonet policy. A point is user, not multi-user       BBS. For rest of the world, it is your boss node who sends the message and who       gets the blame if you do something bad.              Never run multi-user BBS with a point number!              I'll repeat: Never run multi-user BBS with a point number!              Secondly, you should read original FTS documents from the 1990's. MSGID is       without point number. In netmail there is separate FMPT kludge. Even the INTL       kludge is without.              (There might be some never 2010 spec allowing something else. Support for       newer specs will be implemented slowly. Support for specs that were not       available at the time of BBBS release is, of course, impossible.)              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Dada-1        * Origin: * BCG-Box, On The Air Since 11th February 1987! * (2:22/222)    |
