I think things are getting confussed. Everything was compiled on the
m68k, with only config files copied for a starting place.

The message base files got created by the respective program.

Hpt/Magicka = Work (Jam message base)
Hpt/Talsiman = Not Work (Squish message base)
Talsiman/Postie = Work, but the hub/postie reject the packets as bad.
(Squish message base)

Hpt can't read squish filse created by Talsiman/Postie.
Talsiman/Postie can't read squish files created with hpt.

Talisman dosn't support JAM message bases. That's how I found the Squish
message base issue above, as hpt supports squish. But not in this
configuration.
