I've no doubt that it does.

I also believe that defining the Zones in sbbsecho.ini does that too, 
with the assumption that SBBS is using sbbsecho.  I understand the 
dangers of making assumptions, especially when programming a complicated 
beast such as what we're talking about, and why it's correct to do it 
the way you have.  Your efforts are very much appreciated!  :-)
