Agreed :)

The very basic needs of the Elist were designed into the current evolution due 
to time constraints. The old Elist (Echobase) crapped out and destroyed the 
database and would not let me fix it, or keep it viable, so I had no choice but

to abandon it or re-write it {chuckle}.

Future updates to the Elist will be based on the needs of FIDONet as it exists 
today, but will take some time to implement. They WILL get done!

Thanks for your feedback, I need to know what's needed so I know what direction

to take in the development of features, :)
