JP>         Seen on the echo today. Can this be done to the plain
 JP> vanilla BW?

no... that is specific to the PCBOARD BBS software... bluewave doesn't have
anything that simple and/or easy to hexedit...

 JP>  ºLoad your EXE (either PCBOARD.EXE, or PCBOARDM.EXE, or both)
 JP> into a
 JP>  ºhex editor, and search for 12-31-99 (it occurs only once).
 JP> Replace
 JP>  ºthe "99" with "78", and event processing will
work until
 JP> 2078.

you'll note that it says "event processing"... however, it
doesn't do anything about bad dates in the exported mail... that's another
problem in another program...
