   Make sure you have the proper compiled nodelist path entered correctly,   
   make sure that it is a compiled nodelist that is the same as what you have   
   Irex 'set up frontend' set to use. I use Front Door up to 2.2 as my front   
   end and a GoldEd nodelist compiler (Irex is compatible with both).

   I have all of the settings in that config window as Yes, except for one,   
   'keep rexfix messages'.
