PE> Bob, you sent two netmail messages without putting in a "To:",
 PE> so they have gone who-knows-where.

  Bloody hell! I thought I was being good. I sent 3 yesterday, but
as luck has it, I've still got them so I'll send them again.

 PE> I will definitely be updating PQWK to make them go back to the 
 PE> originator in future.

  That sounds like an excellent idea. I can't see anything wrong
with that as a default. It would make a good addition to the Netmail 
standard. Un-addressed netmail would only get as far as the local BBS 
before it was sent back. Why not add a "DICKHEAD ALERT!" message too?

  I save my 00000000.pkt and add it to the incoming packets so I can
see what I sent, but PQWK removes to "To:" and adds a
"From:" so I 
can't tell if I missed one. 

Regards,
Bob
