    I see your post OK, not sure if anything is broke or not.

    Ok I seem to have found the problem here. Since the BBS hasn't been open to the public since before a moved in May the PC hasn't been on full time and themessage base reached it limits because nightly maintance wasn't running, duh.. my bad... I'm just now looking at getting it going again, slowly get over a couple bad falls down stairs that happened when i moved.. so starting to tinker with it again and considreing switching to Mystic on a Pi 0 W.. or maybe Syncronet.. so at least I figure out the problem so echo are coming in.. the fun part will by putting all the echo info in to Mystic ...

    Hi Kent,

    Is IceEdit putting these ~M instead of real linefeeds into the message?

    Are you using the Hudson message base for all your echo's? It has indeed a (very) limited capacity...


    Bye, Wilfred.

    I'm going to guess it is. Never noticed here, it look noral. I can't even rember what I used back in the day.

    I started with all Hudson, but started switching to JAM with newer feeds. And changed some of the exiting to JAM over time. I used the old config from the 90s when I first started rebuilding the BBS. THe old original user and message bases were still there when I started putting it back together.
