    As you can see, the main server (24:100/1 & 69:100/1 received notify netmails from each of the hubs. My question is, why the third line where it shows SBBSecho (24:69/1) to Sysop (24:100/1). There is no net 69 in z24.

    I am not using binkit but I know you've been centralizing may of the features into the sbbsecho.ini file. I have not made any changes to my sbbsecho.ini file so I can't understand why this is happening?

    You have "Fuzzy Zone Operation" enabled and you have the same node number (for your system) in 2 different zones, so that's not going to work the way that feature is written. Probably best to just disable Fuzzy Zone Operation.

    OK... I need fuzzy Zone enabled so I'll just change the node # in z69.

    Are you sure you need it? What happens when Fuzzy Zone is disabled?

    It plays hell with my fidonet uplink who happens to be Janis. She doesn't like other echomail or netmail from another zone. I finally got the system where it was bulletproof but I didn't know about the identical net/node issue between zones.

    I don't know how it could affect your uplink. Fuzzy Zone only affects *imported* netmail (on your system). Are you sure about that?

    Oh? Learn something new everyday. I thought it also affected outgoing netmail addressing as well. I was having issues with makenl at the time where it was sending z24 node segments to her at z1 as routed netmail. I know adding INTL to the ctl file helped that but I thought fuzzyzone was also for outbound. I've set it as false to see if indeed there are no issues.

    Thanks..
