    No, I connect with the Net 1 hub and today received 9 messages in this echo, 2 in Gaming, and 3 in HAM. I have not noticed any days without so messages in some echoes.

    Strange. I have logged onto Agency BBS and left Paul Hayton/Avon a couple of messages, and also sent him am E-mail, but no reply.

    You might want to check your logs and make sure that you are
    making/receiving binkit (or binkd) traffic. I had an issue with binkit
    hanging on a connection, causing me to miss mail. I would also check my sbbsecho.log and make sure it is processing mail. If you seen any FIDOIN
    or FIDOOUT events on the sbbs console that exit with an errorlevel greater than 0, that would also be an indicator that something is going on with sbbsecho.

    Thanks for the ideas to fix this, but it seems my feed was in PAUSE for some reason. I must have done that I guess. I RESUMED it and am back getting mail. I did a RESCAN and got all the past mail. I'll chalk it up to old age...

    Thanks,
    RickV
