   //Hello Rinaldo,//

   to *all* about *"Poll second node, polls first adres"*.   
      
    RV> Hello %destname,   
      
    RV> In winpoint 404 found a bug. Polling the second node calls the first one   
    RV> in line not the second one.   
      
   Just guessing: You have used invalid fidonet addresses on the BBSes and those   
   two nodes actually have the same addres...   
      
   WP actually internally polls by Mailbox Node number when you select a Mailbox   
   from the menu ... so if two mailboxes come down to the same node number the   
   mechanics cause it to use the configuration from the first matching mailbox.   
   Yes, that is unexpected and I am not a fan of it, but its usually a non-issue.
