   Ah!                                              ^^^^^^^^   
      
   That explains why the original subject line got cut off a bit!  LOL   
   Can you implement something that supports QWKE packets? QWKE is supposed to   
   fix the problem of the 25-char limit in QWK.   
      
   Do you use the BW format packets in Bluewave or do you use the fall-back QWK   
   format?

   Durango is supposed to support QWK/QWKE. I've seen one user flying the   
   following tag at the end of their messages:

   		*Durango b301 #PE*   
      
   Durango is supposed to operate more like a database and allows you to combine   
   the contents of previous QWK packets all together too.
