you also cut out the part that the carets were pointing to... those lines
were prefixed with GP... it happened earlier today...

some systems may not have gotten any while others might have gotten only a
few... this depending on how far back the dupe database goes and what
methods are used to determine a duplicate... some only use MSGID and so
they won't catch dupes that do not have a MSGID or those that have had a
MSGID injected into or removed from them...

the problem is/was a misconfigured mail hub which allowed a system to
connect to /ALL/ carried networks' echomail areas instead of just the ones
for the *one network* being connected to... as a result, an areafix for +*
turned on everything and the requesting system then sent the pile of
fidonet echomail stuff to me since i'm its fidonet feed... even some 10 or
15 fidonet echoareas i don't currently carry...
