   The RESCAN functionality is heavily dependant on the state of your message    
   areas. On *.MSG areas, it will rescan to the downlink the messages in each    
   subscribed area when it receives that request. Needless to say if the *.MSG    
   files are purged, or the area is Passthru, no rescanning can take place.   
   The ability to rescan messages was never written to be elaborate beyond this    
   level of functionality. Any Rescan requests must also follow the security    
   criteria defined in Config-Packet/Mail.   
      
   More to the point.... If D'Bridge is not sending messages to one system, but   
   sending to others, the problem is most likely the BinkD stage-directory is   
   missing. The stage directories are named in Base36 Queue format and DBUTIL   
   QNAME can be used to determine the directory name.   
      
   For example, your Queue is in C:\QUEUE and you cannot send messages to   
   1:229/426. Type DBUTIL QNAME 1:229/426 and it returns 00106D.0BU. BinkD    
   staging directories always start with "D-" so the directory    
   C:\QUEUE\D-00106D.0BU should be created if it does not exist.   
      
   The storage method if the Mystic system is a point, is "-POINT" plus whatever    
   the point address is. D-POINT.006 means .6 off your primary address.    
   Currently, it is not possible to have multiple point addresses defined; but    
   there is a workaround you can do with DBUTIL MOVE that I can explain further.
