There isn't room enough for anything but abbreviated flags on that line,
if you happen to have a lot of them set.

The numbers after your node are the message number, as presented by your
software. They continue a 'thread'...

Yeup...I'm afraid there's another problem somewhere that is preventing
that netmail from being sent. Irex has been acting up lately, not allowing
mail to go out to 'un-recognized' node numbers, although it is configed to
read the nodelist and is also set to send to 'unrecognized' nodes (those
not in the 'link' config) when I go back to check that 'send to
unrecognized node, it is set to off again.

Not interested...he can argue his position with the 'programmers' and
leave the problem solving with them.

They have a different setup. Mine uses GD to read/write, Fastecho to toss
and Irex to send. Three places to look for problem areas and no time to
bother with it.
