Hello, Tommi!

The bug in the code is that it takes From field from the Origin line but later it will override with the From field from the JAM/Squish database which is not set right usually.

Also, I like the idea of the readorigin option in the config file. Unfortunately, it is not fully implemented.

 TK> think these X-SMAPI-* fields are only for information.. ?

Correct, for those who are interested in original FTN headers. I am thinking of writing a mobile app using the AI help (cause I have no experience in GUI, mobile, etc) that can work over the NNTP protocol and understand different NNTP<->FTN gateway software that exists today, so that the *normal* FTN headers are displayed instead of RFC representation.

Best Regards, Nil
