Allo!
 BJ> Gilles, how can Max control how a message is created by the Bluewave 
 BJ> door? Expecting Maximus to properly handle or correct 
 A lot. As long Maximus take 102 for 2002, Maximus can handle a lot.
 Scott just have to take care.
 BJ> a message that's been improperly created by a third-
 BJ> party door is unrealistic on your part.  From what 
 I don't expect the moon from the software I use. Just a little
 professionalism from the author. When someone point a "bug",
 we can expect more than a "NOT MY FAULT" game. 
 BJ> Scott has said, it appears there is no year 2000+
 BJ> problem with Maximus 3.01 or its internal QWK mail 
 BJ> system.
 He never said that, see him previous post.
 BJ> This is a *Bluewave* issue, _not_ a Max issue. (Good 
 BJ> luck finding George Hatchew, who has disappeared from 
 BJ> the face of the earth).  :-(
 Their is a lot of Offline readers, and Bluewave are only a small
 utilitie in BBS world. Easy to replace. On the other hand, Maximus take
 a HUGE place and LOT OF SYSOP AND USERS like it. Not easy, but not
 IMPOSSIBLE to replace.
 Au plaisir
 Gilles
 PS: Just take a look at the date field into the door.sys file generated by
 Maximus. Who will handle the date field correctly? Third partly door?
