The NEXT thing you need to do is make sure that the user "Fido2telebot" is
What you need to do is stop using subject lines that are so
long that some fido systems truncate them.

I think of those as a kind of excerpt of the message within. ;)
It's pretty cool. It's much better than people never changing
the subject on fidonet at all. ;)
Other than that, that subj line is limited to 40 chars. If the
author omits creating one, the system will use the 1st 40 chars
of the message for the subj.

And then it is not threaded.

Annoying.

Threading works fine via msgid and replyid fine. The long
subj lines are well supported in other readers. Both details
work great with openxp and thunderbird. Cheers! :)
No worries, I'll just unsub from this annoyance. Enjoy.

I think the subject line can be up to 72 chars.
That's an old standard. The only time you'll see short
subject lines is if someone enters a short subject, or if a
QWK reader cuts it short.

I see that on your Synchronet web interface there is even much more room than 40. Looks good! Again.. a wordier subject can serve as a pretty good preview of what's inside.
I think Stas pick 40 because it's about the best length when viewing on the Telegram app for smartphone before the line would wrap. So, we getthe
potential for a "long" subject, but not too long so wraps and looks ugly in the app.
