Recently. As a matter of fact when I switched from sbbsecho v2.x to
sbbsecho v3.x. The older version didn't check for packet passwords when a
certain configuration was not met (on the Sync system). So while you were
most likely sending a packet password since the very first day we linked
together, it was never caught until I upgraded the tosser (where it works
as expected), and you began linking with Mystic systems.

Seems like there may be quite a bit of software out there that ignores
packet passwords in echomail if this is the first time anyone has ever
noticed this issue.

That's exactly what seems to be the case. We'll have to see what Nick says
once he's taken a look.
