    Yep, OK... but sure looks like you're posting from SBBS... ^^^

    Well I was, but the question was in a Mystic echo about a Mystic
    packet problem.

    To be fair, you NEVER said a single word about it being a "Mystic"
    packet problem.

    In fact, just a few days ago, you were asking this EXACT same question
    in the SBBS support forums on DoveNet, and specifically told
    Digitalman "that helps" when he explained in good detail how to troubleshoot this problem on SBBS. Let me know if you'd like me to
    quote some messages from there.

    So............. can you see why I was thinking you were asking about Synchronet?

    As a general rule, asking good/detailed/complete questions about
    something will get you good answers. Being vague and leaving out
    helpful information ... will not.

    I guess we both made assumptions, I was in the Mystic echo and assumed that it would be viewed as a mystic question, and you saw it was a post FROM a SBBS system...
