I'm talking about the situation when I send a message from fido        TK> to news. It has a MSGID:       [...]        TK> The original fido MSGID is saved in the nntp-message. Maybe that        TK> should be used as a fido MSGID if it exists?                     ### Version 1.5.7 (January 30, 2026)              When converting NNTP to FidoNet, PyGate now checks for the X-FTN-MSGID header       first. If present (indicating the       message originated from FidoNet), it uses the original MSGID instead of       generating a new one. This allows       FidoNet duplicate detection to work correctly and prevents message loops.              The flow is now:       1. FidoNet -> NNTP: MSGID: 2:221/1 697c6658 -> X-FTN-MSGID: 2:221/1 697c6658       2. NNTP -> FidoNet: X-FTN-MSGID: 2:221/1 697c6658 -> MSGID: 2:221/1 697c6658       (same!)              Duplicate detection will now recognize it as the same message.                                   Stephen                     --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20250409        * Origin: Dragon's Lair ---:- dragon.vk3heg.net -:--- Prt: 6800 (3:633/280)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 112 134 206 300 307 317 400 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/470 616 664 700 705 266/512 280/464 291/111 292/854 320/219       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/267 280 384 410 414 418       SEEN-BY: 633/420 422 509 2744 712/848 770/1 902/26 5075/35       PATH: 633/280 229/426           |
