I believe the above logic is faulty

So I sent in an update for the echo DELETE_ME and ran the batch files from Hell.


The first batch file tell the robot to process imcoming messages
The robot posted an ack message in my local echolist echo
The second batch file tells Gecho to toss mail
the mail tosser created 
008a0354.th1, which contained packet D4752725.PKT
The packet clearly showed the announcement sent from the echolist robot to
the echolist echo.

Here is a snippet from the IREX log

So, it looks like your system got it.

Could messages from 1:1/21 (The Robot) not being processed somehow?  

Let me know if I can run any other tests to help solve the problem.
