Well, so long as the offender is willing to change his config. ;)

Yeah, it is optional.

sbbsecho forces it's own tear/origin lines. You can't disable it. So in that case, Golded needs to NOT send it's own tear/origin lines.

Don't think you could really go wrong with that, as most other software doesn't do anything remotely close. It either passes it on, or rejects it (most probably just pass it on).

Ouch. Yeah that's not good! In that case, maybe you're better off just passing on the messages, then. But by all means, if your software informs the sender of an error it'll already be doing better than most other softwares that don't say anything.
