Yes, this can be done. Send those messages as a netmail to you hub and be sure to include the password on the subject line.

Areafix will reply to you with the results of your rescan so if you don't get a reply perhaps that netmail never got to your hub.

Check the logs and see what happens when those messages arrive. If you recieved those messages already they may be caught as dupes. If that is happening you can delete your dupe database, data/echodupes.dat.
