   OK.

   And that, my friend, is THE problem in my hybrid setup!   
      
   As I explained earlier, I receive the same echos from all three of my   
   BossNodes.   
      
   Instead of creating separate echomail folder trees for each BossNode, WinPoint   
   dumps mail into each respective area folder in my one and only echomail folder   
   tree(2:250/1). In other words, after polling each BossNode in turn, I have   
   three copies of each message in each respective area folder in my echomail   
   folder tree.   
      
   However, I know from past experience that if I'm linked into *different* areas   
   at each BossNode, WinPoint *does* create a separate echomail tree for each   
   BossNode.    
      
   Regards,   
   Martin
