Hello g00r00!
Thank you for your reply!

What is a global group? I do have one message area whose List ACS is "any of the Echomail Groups", but that's about it. =)
Anyway, I was standing in FSX_ADS and launching the N G scan:
Group....: fsxNet
Area.....: FSX_ADS: BBS and NETwork Ads
Command (9780 minutes left) -> N
[�] New Scan: (C)urrent Area, (G)roup, (A)ll Groups, (P)ersonal, or (Q)uit? G
Then it began scanning; the last area (among those to be scanned as per the new scan settings) was:
Scanning FIDOTEST: FidoNet TEST echo and malfunction conference...
And that one is not part of the fsxNet group. =)
My message base configurations look like this:

fsxNet is Message Group 2 (g2) and Echomail Group 1 (g1).
FidoNet is Message Group 3 (g3) and Echomail Group 2 (g2).
My user account has s255 (could that affect things?).
Other than that, my Message Settings look like this:

I've also double-checked the G action in the mnewscan menu and it looks OK:
����������������������� Command ID 2: scbbs_en.mnewscan �����������������������

� �

� (GO) Go to new menu message �

...i.e. it does not have /G in the data field.
Can you spot anything strange among those settings?
Many thanks in advance!
