Then sbbsecho resorts back to CRC checking and MSGID. I can set the number to
as large as I want to. Example, I have my system set for 10,000 messages for
each echo. Could my system possibly pass dupes, sure, if someone dumps messages
from 3-4 years ago but how is that sbbsecho's fault.

Originally you discussed this -bug- as allowing dupes due to seen-bys and it
being forwarded.

Right now it looks at Paths, seen-bys, CRC and MSGID. Do you expect it to look
for anything more?  If so, then please, state it.

Plus, with the fidoweb, dupes are expected.... so where does the actual problem
lie?
