Thats the PKTJOIN problem, in some cases it will produce a fucked
QWK which OLX behaves like that with. The crude workaround is to
not process all the PKTs that you did to produce that QWK, say if
there are two, make a separate QWK with each one. Those are the archive
files you get in a mail run from Paul which have separate PKT files
inside. On the very few occasions I have needed to do it, total of
about 5 days, a single archive file from Paul at a time is enough.

Yeah, its definitely the NDX files. Havent bothered to look too closely
at whats wrong with them, never got around to it once it was very rares.

The other possibility is to not use PKTJOIN at all, use daves message
sorter for the same functionality.
