    Hi All,

    I use GoldED with -W to create echolist to be used elsewhere.

    "-W Write a GOLDAREA.INC file with AREADEF's of all mail areas."

    Some groups were shown as "0", not as "X" or "F" or as they should. I investigated this a bit and found out that if "-TooOld" is before "-g F" in echoarea line, GoldED does not read the group correctly.

    Problem solved by reordering parameters in fidoconfig.

    Very cool, what did you add to fidoconfig to resolv this?

    Regards,

    Just moved "-g xx" before "-tooold xx".

    show an example for the old, and one that works, it could be reference to check, my msged does not work with groups, this imho needs msged 6.2.x if existing still, i had this version on lost computer that have served me in 25 yaers, i got most of the needed data over to linode to build based on it, where i am today
