That's correct.  The sportnet.na is not all capitalized and it reads as stated.

 DM> It sounds like a bug (it shouldn't be included linked-areas in the
 DM> UNLINKED areamgr report). What version of SBBSecho are you running?

SBBSecho v3.00-Linux (rev 3.28) - Synchronet FidoNet Echo

Hope this helps...
