If you read my messages in the threads I initially didn't until Paul Hayton
figured out it's modifying mail passing through it... The thing we have to do
now is look at the pathways of any :00 messages and take the time to see what
tosser each node is using and try to track where they are getting mungeled.

I'm really committed to help in what capacity I can.  Here's the dups that I
caught of yours Nicholas.  This is the -last- of many dup checks that happen
when mail is recvied by Winserver.  The server itself will check the Echotag /
From/to/sub/date and msgid to determine a dup.  if it all matches it stops it.
 But by changing the date by one second it's read as a new message even if the
msgid is the same.

Mystic has another proven bug that everyone is well aware of that has not
really caused much of a problem since no one hardly ever uses offline mail
anymore.  It's QWK door uses the same MSGID on all .rep packet uploaded
messages on every BBS.  It's a static MSGID.  But the date/time/subject
from/two are differen so my system lets it in as a unique message.

But the tossers that look solely at the MSGID will kill it.  I think
Synchronet is the one that eats those messages.

I hope this is helpful If I can loop some packets through my system so you can
see what they are doing let me know I'll create a binkd account for you and
set you up.  Let's find a solution to this... and cooperate.
