VL>Hi Ankur,
Hi Victor,
VL>wanted the message pointer to be.  I have 1500 messages in
VL>this echo.  The first time I set it to 1400 and did a QWK
VL>packet.  I got 100 messages in the QWK packet.  The pointer
VL>was then set at 1500.  I reset it to 1450 and did another
VL>QWK packet.  This time I got only 50 messages and the
VL>pointer was again set to 1500.  The only drawback is that
VL>I'm not using the "unique" message numbering system.
VL>Perhaps it'd be a little different with it, but it probably
VL>isn't.
          Well Victor, I was hoping to get something on the superbbs
          kind, where in the qwk menu u can say enter lastread pointers
          and bingo it happens for all msg areas, not just one.
