Hi! Michiel,

On Mon, 11 Nov 02, you wrote to me:

Rick has my tic configuration set for: "Advanced TIC files  No",
so that's not an issue.

Here's some bits from an early tic by Rick:

  Area 640FILES
  Origin 3:640/954{at}fidonet
  From 3:640/954
  [ ... ]
  Created by MBSE BBS 0.35.05 Copyright (C) 1997-2002 M. Broek
  Path 3:640/954{at}fidonet 1036887477 Sun Nov 10 10:17:57 2002 EST
  Seenby 3:640/384
  Pw PASSW0RD

(I can't quote the whole original as I tried several edits of the file
naming fields, but it kept on tossing .BAD - this is the first
distribution, BTW.  That one Rick refers to as having to issue a follow-up
.ZIP replacement tic is the one I referred to in my note to Sean.)

As you can see, MBSE omitted to include its own system on the Seenby list.

Cheers,
Paul.
