I see this unexpected total for Fido netmail in my test index reader

Mystic BBS Support 7,337 0 0 01 Dec 2018
NORTON 7 0 0 01 Feb 2017
Netmail (FidoNet) 0 0 0 15 Dec 2018

But when I look at the netmail base using the read messages menu command I
can see there are 2643 netmails - which is what I expect.

Strange the count should show zero in the other view. Perhaps a netmail specific thing?

Are those 2643 netmail messages addressed all to you? I would assume more
than 0 are but it shouldn't show you the total messages in private bases.

It sounds like even with that said something is broken though! I'll take a look. If I forget please remind me sometime lol

Wonder how many people know you only need one netmail conference vs. one netmail conference for each network? :)

I'm not sure. The nice thing is you can choose to do either :)

They are either addressed to me or sent by me. Users at Agency don't have access to the netmail base(s) at present.

It's also doing the same for other netmail bases I set up for different
message nets.. so something is up.
