My guess is that .pkt files are lost, some problems with the .flo files or .pkt
 files are not tossed properly by crashmail. I would prefer to find the real
problem instead of working around it. Is it a bug with Mystic, some
binkd<->Mystic incompatibility or a Crashmail problem?

I always suspect Mystic, I regularly got dupes from 21:1/100 until I switched
from compressed mail to uncompressed mail.

I'm more interested in setting up a hub that doesn't use Mystic, maybe in
collaboration with one or two other sysops. Apart from the mysteriously lost
mails I would love to have a path in fsxnet that doesn't do line-breaking.
