 AA> Hi Stas.   Just noticing that incoming messages from fido that contain

 AA> Is that something you have to create or is that the consequence of
 AA> something else?

There is an interesting "feature" - the "+" sign by itself disappears when broadcasting to Telegram. The Telegram website recommends escaping it, but this is how it goes with an escape symbol.

 AA> Btw... Happy New Year to you! And thanks for the fine and swift
 AA> improvements that you did for the tg bbs tosser.

Thank you. Happy New Year!
