Not sure if this is a bug or a setting.

I sent a netmail from my point and received a reply but both messages are still in /sbbs/netmail.

I have "kill netmail after sent" set to yes. Am I missing something?

Those messages most likely weren't created by SBBS. If you include the fmsgdump -ctrl option, the PID line should give a clue.

That is likely a true statement since they were to and from my point. Am I supposed to delete these manually then?

Or set echocfg->NetMail->Delete Processed NetMail to "Yes" (the default) and then if/when SBBSecho imports any NetMail messages, it'll delete them immediately after.

I don't remember changing that, maybe I did thinking it did something else. Thanks.
