Ok. Yeah, it definitely messes up Golded.

On the other hand, any newsreader I've used with Synchronet doesn't have an
issue with the smbutil event.

Understood, and no.. I've never used that fixsmb option. I would imagine that
the last read pointers move and Golded doesn't know they moved, or something.
The same happens when using Golded to read /sbbs/data/mail. When an event of
some sort kills read mail (or maybe it's killed after 30 days or something),
Golded craps the bed there, too.

I just chalk it up as Golded's Synchronet support not being updated. Besides
the one fix Vitaliy did somewhat recently, and the patches you've made
somewhat recently.. nobody has updated that code in ages. *shrug*

Regards,
Nick
