Subj : Bad messages To : All From : Rick Smith Date : Sat Sep 30 2023 06:04 pm Hello All! I have been setting up proboard bbs with hpt and was having trouble getting all the message bases into the bbs areas, some of you said to try 8+3 name scheme so I did that, I changed it in the bbs for each area as well as in hpt config. Now most (not all) mail ends up in the bad area saying something is corrupt about it..
