Nice. ;)

The whole inbound is saved at 221/1 before tossing. Outbound mail is not
saved, however I'm exporting now a few echos to a fake address to examine
them. XenOBM and PktView are nice tools for OS/2 to browse BSO and .PKT's.

Talking about seenby stripping... I still have no idea what exactly is
happening, but it sure is related to echomail passing zones...
