Message   ozznixon    All   When to add --- and * Origin...   March 25, 2019
 12:23 PM *  

Are the tearlines only added by the tosser? Or (as I see GoldEd do) is it okay
for the Message System (BBS or in my case NNTP Service) to append the Tear
line?

And, of course the next step down - * Origin... I noticed JAMNNTPd would double
 space in from of the original when reading or replying to the message. Any
reason I should or should not follow their lead?

And on a new post - okay if I add the Origin line too? Or is that a Tosser
piece?

* Down to the wire on bringing ExchangeBBS NNTP Service online. Once this build
 goes online, what other message bases would it make sence for it to support
(right now JAM only, thinking about *.MSG for those running d'Bridge)... not
sure how many people still use HMB? And did anyone actually start to use
Steve's GoldBase? (Thats around the time I folded up shop and became an ISP)...
 I do see Squish is being used by some, and PCBoard 15.4 structure by others...

And per those two topics, if an editor appends the tear line and possible the
Origin, should the BBS/NNTP re-tear? (As my next project is a full color NNTP
client that will understand ANSI).
