   That isn't what I saw when I wrote my reply to You.   
   What I see at the top of this message for the @MSGID: is   
   <55435804.13884.windowsa@capcity2.synchro.net>, I was surprised to   
   see the part after the @ symbol was changed to numbers that meant the   
   Routing Information for Mikes' BBS.   
      
   Has the Origin Line in this message been changed to capcity2 yet?   
      
   I haven't seen any reply from Mike in the echo that I posted the   
   message to tell him about it.

   I got no idea of what is in the nodelist, I'm a User of this BBS,   
   I don't know the stuff SysOp's know about BBSing.   
      
   I always appreciated the people who had a computer that ran a BBS.   
      
   I began using BBS's in 1984 when I used a Commodore 64 with a 300 baud   
   modem.   
      
   I had accounts with BBS's ran on Commodore, Apple and IBM Compatable   
   computers.   
      
   Back then I read Computer Shopper Magazine and saw how much it cost to   
   buy those computers.   
   I didn't own a compatable pc until 1994, and that one (to me) cost a   
   lot of $$$$$$$$$$$ in 1994.   
      
   The C=64 wasn't cheap in 1984 either - the pc, floppy drive and modem   
   cost as much as 'ONE' 4MB SIMM RAM stick cost in 1994 when I got the   
   compatable.   
      
   Today a person can buy a really nice computer for what that 'ONE'   
   4MB SIMM RAM stick cost back then.
