I caught over 6000 the past two days. Dating pretty far back. So I'm guessing
he had them backed up for awhile and when he upgraded his tosser they all
spilled out. I haven't figured out why they were posted to echos not related to
file announcements though, except the fact he just upgraded his tosser and a
bunch of new things were added recently, which may or may not have jived with
his current config. *shrug*.
Either way, I don't think it has much to do with moving message areas around
(or whatever "mark" was talking about). smbutil's (the program used to manually
post messages to your message base in Synchronet) format requires an actual
echotag for the area you're posting to. Not an ID number or base number or
anything like that. My guess is either a major bug was just found in the latest
changes, or his config got screwed up somehow.
Regards,
Nick
