subject: BBBS Polling?

Hello Janis,

Ummm... I might of spoke too soon. If I comment out the [Node Remap] entry
and let BBBS parse the node info from the nodelist itself. The poll loop
continues until I delete the poll using the BBBS Outbound Manager. If I 
enter the same nodelist data into the [Node Remap] entry for that node then
BBBS stops loop polling that node. It should be noted that this is not a
Fidonet node or nodelist. I have compared the existing nodelist entry
format to Fidonet's and other than the FTN address the format appears to 
be the same. As in:

,Node#,System_Name,Location,Sysop_Name,-Unpublished-,300,CM,INA:FQDN,IBN:24556

When I changed the period to a coma in the existing [Node Remap] entry then
BBBS apparently started to then use the [Node Remap] data instead of the
nodelist data. Even though the actual data is the same. I actually cut and
pasted the nodelist data over and then checked it again to make sure the
entry data was the same.
