Ah, of course. I thought it was familiar (^Z is done at the end of ansis
to indicate SAUCE record follows).

I've done this now, it should have ^Z at the end.

Done. My scanner now adds user number and system number to outgoing
messages (and the tosser removes them from incoming messages).

Strange, I must have the fixed version - as I haven't been hiding akas
when calling myself, and I've got a handful. When I was attempting to
pull from Mark's system I did try hiding akas, though it didn't make any
difference there.

Yeah, I'm not sure if binkd supports inboxes though - all incoming files
get dumped in either the secure inbound or the unsecure inbound. So,
if I got inbound files from both rushnet and wwivnet it would receive
s101.net from both, without indication of which came from where.

It's not a big deal though, WWIVnet is pretty unique unlike FTN where
there are dozens of nets. I could be missing something too. I'm a nOOb at
this lol :P
