Synchronet/SBBSecho uses 2 methods of dupe messge detection:              1. Message-ID (in the case of FTN, that's everything between "\1MSGID: " and        the CR) - the Message-ID doesn't change when messages a re-scanned       2. Message body text (not including kludge/control lines, paths/seen-bys,        and tear/tag/origin lines)              Rescanned messages would (should) be caught as dupes just fine.               digital man              This Is Spinal Tap quote #36:       Bobbi Flekman: Money talks, and bullshit walks.       Norco, CA WX: 74.4øF, 56.0% humidity, 2 mph E wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrs       --- SBBSecho 3.05-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)    |
