   It is set to "Warning".  Is that more or less severe than "Informational"?   
      
   The attempts were set at 60 so I lowered it.  What happens when it "gives   
   up"?   
      
   Regardless they were *not* written to the console.  They were written in   
   the terminal window when sbbsecho was run manually but, in normal   
   operation, they do *not* show up on the sbbs console or in syslog.
