   Hello Tommi!   
      
   30 Jan 26 10:07, you wrote to me:   
      
    TK> Nope. 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.
