It seems that BBBS exchanges echomail using 4D addresses. This is right for our
Fido World. But when this echomail arrives to an Internet service it lacks a 5D
part (the domain part).

I'm observing a similar behaviour in my Jamnntpd gateway when I check it with
Mozilla Thunderbird: as the echomail's From header doesn't observe a 5D address
(ex. 2:343/107@beholderbbs.org) I can't see correctly in the message list
panel.

It could also be the reason for your error.

At this point, I can't find any option through bcfg4 where I could set up a 5D
fake-address... :-/


A reveure!!
