OK, Synchronet is such a better BBS package (when handling mail at least) :)

Found them:

Hub 3 saved you from getting only 447 of them - the rest would have been passed on - probably because they were old messages and Hub 3 only has 3 months of dupe history (I'm going to increase that to 3yrs - but it'll take some time to get there.) 

I'm not aware of a config item to limit the age of received messages - if you are let me know and I'll implement that too.

I (2/116) never got the messages from Hub 3 - since they all dig originate from 2/100 - and from Hub 3 2/116 would have been in the seen-by's already - so Hub 3 never packaged them up for me.

That said, I did get them to 2/116 from 2/100 - and SBBS discarded them because of age and dupe checking. :)
