My guess is its probably this:

 + The default value for the "To:" field when posting a message is now
   configurable on a per-theme basis.  The value of prompt #104 will now be
   used as the default for the To field.  If you've never modified this then
   you don't have to do anything but you may need to reset it to default in
   the prompt editor otherwise.

You'll want to go into you prompts and reset it to default (prompt #104) or set it to "All".  Mystic should update all of this on its own unless it was customized (assuming the new prompt.dat is replaced when upgrading each time).

I think that might depend on your archive configuration.  If the new install of A48 works and you haven't modified your archive settings then you could try to take the archive.dat from the new A48 and copy to your BBS's data folder.

Either should be ok.  I can help you work out the issues or you should be ok to copy data over as well.

.... Isn’t it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do "practice"?
