FWIW: it was a simple copy'pasta of the message from the original area to this 
area... one of two things should have been done... either the OP would have 
manually invalidated the othernet origin lines OR the message editor should 
have done it when the message was saved and a proper origin line for the 
destination FTN was added... apparently the editor doesn't do this so the OP 
should... it isn't that big a deal, really, and wildcat! has done this for 
decades... it is not the only one, either...
