Hi, Paul.

[file list chomped. nothing in there of mine, except...]

PE> 0000FFE8 FR1    16958   7-07-95   7:35

... which would have been the mail for that day.

Sure. This was an observed anomaly, which I have no evidence to support.
I'd rather not keep a log unless there's a problem which we might want
to track down. BTW I'm still saving all inbound packets waiting for the
problem with PKT2QWK to reappear and guess what - it hasn't. However
there's been at least a couple of new version since then so perhaps it's
fixed. Maybe I'll stop saving the inbound.

Regards, FIM.
