Hiya echicken...

Had a downlink do an areafix to me while he was using the web interface. It seems when using the web it does funny things to the header. Below is what I received.

+------------------------····
¦ Subj: ??????
¦ Attr: Private Read
¦ To : areafix@24:24/1 (24:24/1) #1
¦ From: Raymond Quinn (24:160/1)
¦ Date: Wed Jan 06 2016 18:11:16 PST +-----------------------------------------------······

As you can see on the To: line, it added the @24:24/1. When sbbsecho saw that to process the request, it tagged it as unknown user.

During our discussion I told Ray we were having issues because of the way the netmail was being recived on my end so I had him use and offline mailreader to compose the netmail and upload it. Voila, it was only addressed as such:

Sbbsecho processed it with no issue.

I'm certainly not pointing towards your web design... just something that I thought was puzzling.

Thanks...

I'm a bit groggy yet, so bear with me - but was he using the web interface on his BBS or your own? (I'm assuming his own.)

I'll have to tinker with the mail stuff a bit and see what I'm doing re: different kinds of addresses. I may need to rejoin Fidonet or set up a testing FTN of my own to troubleshoot properly.

Yes, his own. He's running Linux as his OS (not sure which version)

OK... not a problem. Just something I thought you should know. :)
