   The above seems like a MSGID or a computed packet naming scheme, not an   
   areatag. Is the echotag actually fec1e5dd? Also, is 8020 the number of your   
   message in the message base?

   This log snippet doesn't mention anything about area "fec1e5dd". But it does   
   mention "WIN95". Something seems odd there, like your echomail.jam should read:   
      
   /opt/ftn/fido/msgbase/win95 8020   
      
   ..instead, and that is what FMail is looking for, but since it doesn't see it,   
   and nothing else was read from echomail.jam it deleted the file.

   I believe I had asked about some better logging when echomail.jam fails too. ;)
