    I believe another attempt to fix the 255 line issue being reported was also
    in there. I don't think I've noticed it from myself directly, but I've seen some posts where I wondered where the rest of the paragraph went. ;)

    That would be most welcome, I have updated the NET 1 HUB to see if the fixes work. Let me know if you spot anything.

    How do we set that up?

    Right. I've only noticed it from other systems. I never noticed it coming
    from my system, well, because I probably haven't written 255 characters straight in quite some time. ;)

    How do we set that up?

    Just enable a qwk hub for an message area. You also need to crate accounts
    for each qwk node and make sure that that account is set for qwk networking.

    In setting up say Dovenet as a QWK network in Mystic. Does one need to concern oneself with network type? Or just worry about any QWK related settings?

    That suggests another question. Is there a way to import a QWK message are list into Mystic that may have numerous message areas?

    I have my QWK areas (I setup DOVE as a learning exercise) set as Echomail, but since there's no FTN, I've left the AKA as 0:0/0 (local)

    That suggests another question. Is there a way to import a QWK message
    are list into Mystic that may have numerous message areas?

    I kinda cheated. I used Synchronet to export a .NA file, then imported that into Mystic with mutil. I had to make some minor fixes and add the QWK networking information for each area.

    The ideal solution (which DM informs me Synchronet can do) is to be able to import selected areas from CONTROL.DAT from a QWK packet.
