Remarks:

f Has a ::f1d0:<zone>:<net>:<node> style host address
IO Incoming only (Node can not make outgoing IPv6 calls)
OO Outgoing only (Node can not accept incoming IPv6 calls)
INO4 No IPv4 (Node can not accept incoming IPv4 calls)
PO4 Prefers Out on 4 (Node can make outgoing IPv6 calls,
but is configured to try IPv4 first)
6DWN The IPv6 connectivity of this node is temporarely down.
DOWN This node is temporarely down for both IPv4 and IPv6
PM Prospective Member. The node has demonstrated IPv6
capability but is not listed or does not advertise an
IPv6 address in the Fidonet nodelist yet.


Notes:

To make an IPv6 connection to a node connected via 6to4 tunneling
one may have to force the mailer into IPv6 (-6 option in binkd's
node config for binkd up to 1.1a-96, -64 option for binkd 1.1a-97
and up). If the destination address is a 6to4 tunnel address
(2002::/16) many OSs default to IPv4 if an IPv4 address is present.

I'm only seeing 3 messages for this FidoNews (parts 0,1,5 of 6).
Seems like it's been that way for quite a few weeks now. Anybody
else seeing the same thing?

Nope. They're all there. Look for the companion -FNEWS_PUBLISH- echo. It only has the distrubution posts. No chit-chat.

I see 6 messages here. If some of those messages have not changed in a
while your tosser may have considered them dupes and not imported them.

Well, that would be refreshing... :-)

Wonder why I'm not seeing all the posts in this echo, though.

Thanks Alan, a great idea... I checked the tosser log and see that
only 3 were received (no dupes). I'll ask my hub about it,
appreciate the reply.

I just had a closer look at the parts you missed. Part 2, 3, 4 and 6.

Part 2 is the jamnntpd server list, probably unchanged.
Part 3 is the fidonet software listing
Part 4 is the fidonet software listing, continued. Probably unchanged.
Part 6 is the fidonews info, also probably unchanged.

My best guess is these are being trapped as dupes somewhere and not
making it to your node.

No, but what I did see this week is that parts 0, 1 and 5 got to me via
a very different route than parts 2, 3, 4 and 6. Perhaps since there
was nothing new in those four parts, they got trapped as dupes by you
uplink based on a checksum of the content -- ignoring the MSGID and
Date.
