Do you have the BADAREA set up in your sbbsecho AREAS.BBS file?  If the
messages are not going there, that would likely rule out a tag issue.
Having BADAREA set up very recently helped me track down an issue (I had the
SBBS internal tag and the FTN tag reversed!).

If you have one set up, and they are not going there, other culprits that
spring to mind are a mismatch between the AREAS.BBS file and your SCFG area
tags (which it sounds like you've already checked), or an issue with the
compression used on the packets.  It sounds like it looks like they are
decompressing properly, though.
