I'm talking about SBBS via telnet. lol ... here, for example, is my message header for your message: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ..: :::.::: S$$S``sSs`:: From : Digital Man (digi :::::: s$$$$sS$$$S ; To : Time Warrior :::::: $$$$$$$$$$$S Subj : NNTP :::::::$$$$$ $$$$$$ Stat : Time Warrior :::::::::::: $$$$$$ :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Now with posts that use nntp readers as opposed to telnet, your message would read: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: ..: :::.::: S$$S``sSs`:: From : Digital Man (digi :::::: s$$$$sS$$$S ; To : alt.bbs.synchronet :::::: $$$$$$$$$$$S Subj : NNTP :::::::$$$$$ $$$$$$ Stat : Time Warrior :::::::::::: $$$$$$ :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Logon to malkaviabbs.com via telnet, read alt.2600 and you'll see what i'm talking about. I suggest 2600 because its a regular usenet area that is NOT filled with Sysops but majority regular internet users who use a straight nntp client via their isp. "The 2600 Network" and "2600 FAQ" is as it's listed on my BBS. Now, when you are in message read and you do a (L)ist, it shows the "To:" field which says To: alt.2600 ... if for posts via nntp readers the (L)ist could use the "Stat" field instead, that would be awesome :-) -- .---------------------------------------------------------------. | [TiME WaRRiOR] aka [Dave Kelso] AIM: Twar782 | +o Malkavia BBS | | www : synchsupport.net - malkaviabbs.com - xpresit.net | | www$: josephsjewelersonline.com - preferedinsurance.com | | @: time.warrior@malkaviabbs. com | \______________________________________________________________/ --- Synchronet 3.12a-Win32 NewsLink 1.76 * Malkavia - Chicago, IL - telnet://malkaviabbs.com --- Synchronet 3.12b-Win32 NewsLink 1.83 .
