Just guessing: You have used invalid fidonet addresses on the BBSes and those two nodes actually have the same addres...

WP actually internally polls by Mailbox Node number when you select a Mailbox from the menu ... so if two mailboxes come down to the same node number the mechanics cause it to use the configuration from the first matching mailbox. Yes, that is unexpected and I am not a fan of it, but its usually a non-issue.
