Does that mean that Bob L and FIM using TinyPoint could actually see a
message in this echo, from me to you that was flagged private.
 send one and find out.....

But a BBS sysop has access to all the messages and could see them?
But any users calling his sytem would not see them?

Have I got it right?

I noticed that on Christians system, a netmail message that had been
routed through his system, was marked Transit/Kill.
Does this mean that it would have been deleted from the netmail folder
on the next poll?

Cheers
