->MSGID: 1:104/57.0 520b9e4f
->PID: ViaMAIL! v2.00 90-0001
 
->Upon recycling back to the BBS, Wildcat! detected I was out of time
->and promptly kicked me off stating I had exceeded my time limit.
->Obviously that wasn't the case (I had only been on a few minutes) so the
->whole thing sounded way too familiar.
->
->So I ran up my PATCHWC v3.00 program and checked the Epoch date on the
->WILDCAT.EXE and sure enough, it was set for 1919.  Since today is the
->first day of 2019, this was the exact reason PATCHWC.EXE was created
->for.
->
->So I ran up PATCHWC.EXE and changed the Epoch date to 1930 and ran it
->against Wildcat!'s executables.  Subsequent attempts at replying to
->netmails in Wildcat! were now successful and life is good.
->
->Long story short, if you run DOORs (of any kind) and have not patched
->your Wildcat! EXEs, or if your Epoch date was set to 1919 (as was mine),
->then you'll need to run PATCHWC against it and use at least 1920 as the
 
->Epoch date.  If you need a copy of the program (it's free), let me know
->and I'll make it available for you.

I requested a copy but never received it??? 
Can you send it to sysop@techware2k.com 
 
Thanks
