I see both the original in ASIAN_LINK and the        MK> so-called dupe in LINUX and they are EXACTLY the same other than AREA.        MK> Also confirm that the MSGID is EXACTLY the same in both.              Yes, I see that message in ASIAN_LINK also and it looks the same. The same       date, time, content and MSGID.               MK> They both show up on the EuroPoint which means that they both got        MK> tossed by my uplink there -> 2:280/464. Since 2:280/464 tossed them        MK> both then they both got tossed by you since your node is the first        MK> tosser both those msgs saw. Also they were both packed here ->        MK> 1:153/7001, in the same pkt so it isn't like there were multiple files        MK> to deal with. In other words dupe checking looks to be limited to        MK> AREA. No?              That's what it seems at least here and 280/464.               MK> Without knowing for sure I am guessing that is supposed to happen. If        MK> not then there is another bug.              I would use a unique MSGID even when cross posting. They seem to get tossed OK       here and 280/464 but you never know what could happen along the way. There       might be a tosser in the wild that will see an identical message with an       identical MSGID that will toss it aside.               Ttyl :-),        Al              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 50/13 90/1 103/705 105/81 120/340 123/131 124/5016       SEEN-BY: 153/105 135 141 757 802 6809 7001 154/10 203/0 221/0 6 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 452 550 616 664 1016 240/5832       SEEN-BY: 249/110 206 317 400 261/38 267/67 280/464 5003 288/100 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 310/31 317/3 322/757 335/364 342/17 200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 770/1 2452/250 4500/1 5020/400 545 1477 4441       SEEN-BY: 5025/3 5030/1957 2404 5037/7 5053/58 400 5066/18 5080/102       SEEN-BY: 5095/20       PATH: 153/757 221/6 5020/545 280/464 229/101 426           |
