apam,
If it helps, on my magicka system, this area is set up like this:

[FSX_MAG - Magicka BBS Support]
Read Sec Level = 10
Write Sec Level = 10
Path = /home/bbs/MagickaBBS/msgs/fsx_mag
; local / echo or netmail
Type = Echo 
QWK Name = FSX_Magika
QWK Conference = 2188

In my bluewave packet that I am reading in Multimail for DOS, what I see for
this echo is the first line, in the brackets.  I don't see the QWK Name or
whatever tag is being used.

So I think you are correct about it using the actual name.
