Hi Dan... What I seem to have gotten is odd. Maybe not to you, but I really 
hadn't used my reader since early 99. I opened an old zipped version of my 
reader. I downloaded a packet from my Sync BBS, and I don't believe I 
replied, but entered 2 messages in an area. Now oddly enough, one message 
came in at the right date. The other came in at 2010. Now that message will 
show up as new in everyones scan for a long time  Anyway, so are you 
saying it's the qwk that caused this? All I have to do is use that fixerupper 
and it should work? I'll go see if I can find the file. Thanks very much. I 
hope it works and is not a bug because a rusty ol sysop has set something up 
wrong 8-). Thanks again,

Take Care,
Mike
