I deleted the entire msgbase and just let HPT create them as they came in, some work and some do not, its really bizzare actually.  Some of the shortned names work and some do not.  I am going to do some more exploring and recheck that everything is configured correctly.  I am on OS/2 (ARCAOS) so I am not using JAM I recall some issues with JAM on os2 a year ago so switched to squish not sure if thats still true today.

Rick
