exactly... that's why i keep my admin related netmails in a private netmail
area well away from the BBS' users' netmail areas... the mailer has its own
netmail area for specific reasons... this is exactly one of those... having

another... why do they need to be mixed into the BBS' netmail areas for the
users to use? they don't and shouldn't IMO...
