 DM> (e.g. using Telnet, RLogin or SSH) and read the message, it should
 DM> parse out the {at}-codes for you. If it's not, then try displaying the
 DM> message header (the 'H' sysop command while at the reading msgs prompt)
 DM> and verify that the 'from_ext' value is #1. Also, you're not using a
 DM> message reading mod by chance are you? If so, that could cause the

This is the message header from a posting using SMBUTIL where the codes did not
work:

When posting via telnet using Slyedit the codes work.... Here is the header.

There is a difference whereas the SenderExt is not apppearing on the first
post.  


Regarding the mod, not that I am aware of.  I am reading via telnet the way you
designed Synch.. 

I've been posting in Fidotest so if you need to see the headers on your end
have at it.

Thank you..
