 BC> Which brings up a mistake I made... 

 BC> The "Open Mail Packet" list is kept in BWAVE\DATA\PKTSTATS.BW 

 BC> The Flags & Marks info are kept in the "BBSNAME".### packet in 
 BC> the "BBSNAME".XTI file, which is ZIP'd into it when the packet

I still don't understand why it wouldn't know that as I had copied 
all the files over to it...  

Wait a munite...  I copied the bbsname.pkts AFTER I set up BW itself...

Now, that's a possibility.  

Jean, do you also see messages that you have deleted when you 
re-open a packet?
