Ahhh - no, they are listed as 'Local' in the Network tab.

This is the only thing I have setup correctly, it seems?? :P
... and the Origin, which isn't going out prolly b/c of my other settings.

Nope - I don't... I thought these Addresses were only for FTNs/FidoNet.

Ac> Address
Ac> Zone 0
Ac> Net 0
Ac> Node 0
Ac> Point 0
Ac> Domain dovenet
Ac> Description Dovenet
Ac> Primary No

... ok - Mystic won't let me add a 0:0/0 Echomail Address; the 'dovenet' goes away when I press enter/ESC, I'm assuming b/c its 0:0/0 - do you run a Mystic BBS and can just copy/paste exactly what you have in your setup?

OR, at least I know what I'm doing wrong - and I'll ask other Mystic sysops their setup... the DoveNet traffic was flowing, so I thought I had it setup correctly. Also, I'll go review the Mystic Wiki for info I missed. THANKS!

Change this to "Networked"

If the "Base Type" is set to "Local", then that is why it's not appending a tear/origin line.

This may be the case. I was covering a lot of places at once, to see if I could pinpoint the issue. Should be as easy as changing your "Base Type" for each message area in Dovenet.

This may not matter, and you may not need to do it.

Change the above option only, for each message area in Dovenet, and you should be good to go.

Nick
