Make sure that the from: address on the BADMSGS is defined as an EchoFeed
in SEALCFG.  Make sure the feed is allowed to auto-create.  Make sure a
base path is defined to tell SEAL =where= to auto-create.  Make sure that
definition includes a pointer to a "forwarding list" that
contains the tags and descriptions in an .NA-style format.  If you've those
covered, then check the logs after a SEAL BAD run to see if it is telling
you specifically what it doesn't like.  Once in a blue moon, there's more
in the logs regarding an error than what echoes to the screen.
