RS>> SBBSecho (the echomail program, "tosser", that I have developed and
RS>> supported for 25+ years) sets the "LOCAL" attribute on exported
RS>> echomail messages and strips it from imported echomail messages.

FB> This sounds strange, The LOCal attribuste shoudn't identify the local

FB> Once exported in a mail packet the LOCal attribute shouldn't be trimmed

rob is speaking of how sbbsecho exports from a proprietary message format to
standard FTN MSG format... at that point is where sbbsecho works with FTN
standards... the proprietary message base format that sbbs uses has other means
of identifying locally and non-locally written messages...

plus, he's not spoken of packing netmails or echomail into packets... that's
another part of the process...
