Nolan, Maximus can insert a different origin line for each echo in 
MSGAREA.CTL. Here's the section I have for MUFFIN:
MsgArea MUFF
  ACS       Normal/EV
  Desc      Maximus BBS Support (Sysops)
  Path      D:\Fido\Muffin
  Origin    . . UltraTech - Nashville, TN * PRIVATE * {V.34/V.FC}
  Tag       MUFFIN
  Style     Squish Echo Pub
End MsgArea
Note that this is in Max v3.01 format.  Each echo area has its own Origin 
line but they're not all the same.

Hmmm... MSGAREA.CTL:
MsgArea SYSO
  ACS     Transient
  Desc    Comments to SysOp (Private)
  Path    D:\Fido\0Syso
  Style   Squish Local Pvt RealName Hidden HighBit
  Renum Max   100
End MsgArea
And in MAX.CTL:
  % The following keyword specifies the area number in which
  % log-off comments should be placed.  (This area number also
  % applies to the Leave_Comment menu function and the
  % [leave_comment] MECCA token.)
  Comment Area            SYSO
I don't know what else one would need to do.  Only other thing I can think of 
is that SYSO is the *first* area listed in MsgArea.Ctl (if that makes any 
difference).
