So, I'm still confused.

ALTTEST (that receives the message) - as built *after* you committed the fix to the msgs.ini corruption. It was built with commit #cadada4df that fixes that issue (unless there is another one?).

When I go to SCFG->Networks->QWK->Hubs->ALTERANT it shows this for Sync Discussion:

³                     Networked Sub-board                  ³
ĆÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ
³Sub-board             0072:DOVE-Net Synchronet Discussion ³
³Conference Number     2007                                ³
³Ctrl-A Codes          Strip out                           ³

Which is consistent with what you pasted above (that happens to be in
msgs.ini).

What am I changing? The conf number is the same - is that not the important item?

I've compared the "Internal Code" on both ALTERANT and ALTTEST (DOVE-SYNCDISC) and they are the same, and so is the "QWK Name" (SyncDiscus).

I dont know what needs a fixing.
