Hi Al,

I really don't know what it will do Lol... but I think you will be ok.  It's in
 the words/phrases in the _body_ of the message that can cause problems that
I've seen...

If your tagline causes problems, it's no big deal to then send areafix another
message  with:

echo -MYSTIC
echo -LINUX

or if you don't want any echomail at all just send in an areafix for file areas
 with the file keyword:

file +^pdngo

(links all the pdngo areas)

I figure those are the lines you worried about? I think BBBS will ignore info
in the tagline, Origin area of course.

Take care,
Janis
