   what do you mean it doesn't show up on Doc's Place? that's where you posted   
   them from... the reality is that something has a broken date problem... either   
   your reader or the door on the BBS you post from... i have numerous "y2k"   
   packets here and all of them show posts from you with dates ranging from 1995   
   to 2034... some messages have accurate dates but others do not... i'm unable   
   to determine what the factor(s) are for this from the raw PKTs i have at   
   hand...   
      
   how did i ""capture"" them?? as a fido mail distributor, i run a tool called   
   PKTDATE which sidelines PKT files with bad dates in them but this tool also   
   corrects those dates and passes the messages on... currently i have this tool   
   running to catch dates that are out by more than 2 years either way... plus or   
   minus...   
      
   i can make these PKTs available to you if you like so you can see the actual   
   dates in the raw PKTs as they arrived here on my system if you like...   
   LIST.COM shows them easily as will any other tool that shows the raw binary   
   data contained in a file...   
      
   the main question is what reader/editor are you using for your offline   
   activities because all of the messages in question show Silver Xpress in the   
   tearline but there's no indication of whether this is the SX door or the SX   
   reader/editor that is used...
