 BC> I found the problem... 
 BC> BBSNETS is a QWK BBS with a 25 character subject line limit. 
 BC> If I go to a different telnet BBS, with a Blue Wave door, then I have 
 BC> the 70 character subject line. 
 BC> The 1st time it hits a QWK BBS it will get truncated though. 
 BC> Once it's truncated, it stays truncated. 

 DC> That is true.  It can only pass along what it accepted.  
 DC> Why I really hate are OLRs that keep adding RE's to the subject!  

One of the first things I did with Blue Wave Message Entry Preferences 
was to change: 
 Insert "Re:" in reply subjects  to  NO
