The MSGID originating from SemPoint is being replaced with a new one
by the PCBWave door.
Infact, it looks like every host system is replacing the original MSGID
and PID that SemPoint puts in. I thought that if those were present
upon upload, they would remain untouched.
If it's from a bluewave package I can see the logic in that. Because
bluewave packages basically are equal in status to messages written
online by a bbs user. And those messages get the MSGID from the bbs.
Ah.. OK, offline via QWK/BW = user on BBS, .: BBS is the MSGID creator.
I can accept that.
Then, it looks like the better approach would be to try and use SemPoint
as a point.
Not a major issue. But the lack of ANY kludges in the downloaded
packets from DangerBay's PCBWave door, is a bit disconcerting.
I don't see a reason why they should be removed unless the bluewave
standard requires so?
Well.. BW support varies from system to system:
[1] the PCBWave door is stripping everything out. :(
[2] the bluewave option in BBBS can enable kludges by request.
[3] the bluewave support on Concord leaves everything alone. :)
[4] the bluewave system in Magicka munges the dates. :((
This generally concludes my foray exploring BW as an option in SemPoint.
Thanks EVERYONE!
