Hello, Tommi!

Monday September 11 2023 07:04, from Tommi Koivula -> Stas Mishchenkov, in URL @OFGHIUrl:

 TK> Hptutil can do all of this too. The real bonus would be a possibility

Lemme guess, you are having a hard time with *smapinntpd* after purging your JAM bases? This guy (smapinntpd ) operates with the 'unique message ID' which is supposed to survive the database purging.

I raised this question in a Russian speaking echo conferences *ru.ftn.develop*  and *ru.fidonet.today*  about two weeks ago. We had a very interesting discussion with a few folks after which I realized that people think that the BaseMsgNum field in the JAM header should stay 1 all the time.

Best Regards,
Nil
