|    Mystic QWK strange happenings    |
|    23 Jan 23 10:24:55    |
      From: nospam.Rick.Sanchez@f420.n105.z1.fidonet.org              Ok, so this is what I am noticing from various different BBS's when using QWK       packets. I will explain my exact process first:              I log into BBS. I will then the first time goto Offline/QWK mail and select       which areas I want it to scan for my packets. I will then select to download       the packet and complete the download. I will select the option for mystic to       update my last read pointers.              If I sign back on right away, or throughout the day and do the process of       downloading again, it will create a packat with JUST what has been unread since       my last download.              However, after (random? or maybe after Maintenance?) some time I will come back       to download the QWK packet and ALL areas are downloading EVERY message again as       if I've never read ANY of the messages in these messasge areas. Like stated       before, this does not seem to be only one BBS this is happening on, but       multiple BBS's I have been downloading packets from. I am hoping someone has       some input on this topic and can either advice something I am doing incorrect,       or a setting / maintenance change to the Mystic systems to correct the problem.              Thanks                     iNoNaMouSe        Hacking at 14.4kbps from your local Victoria's Secret...              ...
