Hi, Rod.

I don't think I have put a To: in my AREAFIXs before, either. I can't
check that, 'cos something in the chain OLX -> QWK2PKT -> PKT2QWK -> OLX
*changes* any To: line in Netmail to From: 3:711/934.24 (my point). And
if it's not there, it *adds* From: :/0.24. So my
copies of all Netmail messages are not as I sent them, and who knows
what went out in the packet.

RS>Frank appeared to be saying that a message to AREAFIX fanged his

Yep, that's what I was saying. And that to the best of my memory I had
never put a To: into an AREAFIX message before either. And I'm still on
PQWK221. However, it's quite possible I hadn't sent an AREAFIX message
since upgrading (?) from the previous (PQWK220?), so maybe the problem
was introduced there.

Regards, FIM.
