Disable dupe checking in BBS Ads sub-boards.       2. Alter your Ad post slightly each time. I use a script to insert the        current date at the bottom of my Ad before it's posted. That way it's        seen as a different (non-dupe) message.               ph> What is the "10000 message CRCs" setting?              It means it will search 10000 messages to see if the current one matches        any of them and is therefore a dupe. Doesn't make any sense to have        that set like that if you only keep 1000 messages. Make them match. I        suggest 5000 for both.                            ... Pros are those who do their jobs well, even when they don't feel like it.       --- MultiMail/Linux v0.52        þ Synchronet þ Palantir BBS * palantirbbs.ddns.net * Pensacola, FL        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 90/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 153/757 7715 154/10       SEEN-BY: 154/30 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/110 114 206       SEEN-BY: 229/317 400 426 428 470 550 700 705 240/1120 5832 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/1038 291/111 292/8125 301/1 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124 467/888       SEEN-BY: 633/280 712/848 770/1 5020/400 5054/30 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
