Perhaps. Another possibliity might be to supply the sub-board name in the
EDITOR.INF file (rather than or in addition-to the "to" name). I noticed just
recently that WWIV puts the sub-board name in the EDITOR.INF on the same line
where Synchronet puts to the "to" name. It seems both could be very useful to
an editor. I don't rember if MSGINF includes the "to" name too. I'll have to
look into that as well...
