NP> HI Rod
NP> For your own AVT messages the following happened

NP> Not received in Hobart
NP> --------------------
NP> 6 of 10 on the 13/4
NP> 1     5        14/4
NP> 8     11       16/4

NP> Not received in Brisbane
NP> ------------------------
NP> 6 of 10 on the 13/4
NP> 11   11        16/4

NP> All others days since then have been OK

NP> I think that the above losses would have

Yep, pretty convincing evidence.

NP> On a number of days there are more of your messages
NP> hitting Brisbane than left Sydney, but this is due
NP> to someones system splitting your long messages.

Shit, forgot about that, what a fuckup. I awked that list from
the OLX OUTBOX, before OLX does the splitting when making the REP.

I'll do another list, but its a bit more
tricky to do it over the outgoing PKTs.

NP> The extra's caused by splitting could however cover a lost
NP> message to Bris and I wouldn't know If you want the count

Probably better to just do the list properly by using the outgoing
PKTs as the input to the list generator instead. It covers a longer
period than the OLX OUTBOX anyway. Just not so convenient to Awk them.
