    Well, it's coming along.

    I had started trying my hand at writing a BBS package back during the pandemic, and then got a little overwhelmed time wise with planning a wedding, post wedding shenanigans, and then moving and renos. Finally have a chance to get back to it a bit.

    I think I have the general msg base, tossing, and mailing functions mostly working now.

    Appologies in advance if there somehow end up with a couple duplicate or malformed messages here. But given the interest level that had been present for this project that then died off a bit, I hope that having some new stuff to play with might help get something going again.

    Though it looks like source address within the packed messages still needs tweaking... At least the packet addressing is working better now.

    Looks like I just need to square away the origin line generation and merging now, and then the FTN message component is good to go. Complete with better threading algos on the system.

    Kachow!!

    Anybody want to check their logs and make sure the seen-by line isn't getting munged too bad on these tosses?

    Well the last one would have for sure. They should hopefully be doing better now.
