This is the code for the version 4.10 - I don't know if it works or not i
version befor that.

Look for the file FIDO.C

locate function FidoMsgAreaOpen()

   ----- fido.c begins -----
long FidoMsgAreaOpen(AREA * a)
{

Well it is not a big deal, but it works, and lastreader record for a
fidonetmail area is _always_ LASTREAD.

I hope it makes senses.

If you run in to problems, please tell me, and I will post en code, or the
exe file with the chance I made (to make MsgEd work like I want it :-) on
Internet, so you can get it form there.
