No, you don't and that's partially my fault. Let's try a paradigm shift
here....I'm not trying to toss fidonet messages into a MySQL database. I'm
just replicating my JAM message bases with a MySQL database. My MySQL
database never sees the light of day. Everything that comes or goes from my
node is processed either by my BBS or by IREX. Is it perfect? No, but it's
pretty f***cking fantastic considering I've been working on it for about 10
days and other people have been working on it for years and have nothing to
show for it.

I agree with the 'lost in translation' thing. I find most of your posts
pretty irritating, but I don't think that's your fault - I just don't think
I can relate to you. Whatever the reason, I think this subject has lived
its usefulness so if we could just let this thread die, that would be
marvy.

As for the quoting - yeah, there's a few things on my to do list. Many more
pressing than quoting, but it's there.
