   That would explain why it was never upgraded to a standard. Definitely would   
   have been a good thing if most tossers would have adopted that concept. It   
   could have probably prevented many dupes from systems rescanning and   
   forwarding all those messages to their links. :(

   He has acked a few recent echo additions and sent out some new backbone.na's,   
   but as for the rest.. it doesn't really matter as long as he's enjoying   
   himself. :)
