Hello, I have an interesting issue. This has happened with more than one FTN so far. Not sure if I have a setting set incorrectly somewhere.
When I join a new FTN, and send areafix a %RESCAN and I end up with thousands of new messages I obviously go to set a newscan date.
The problem is, I still randomly end up with some echo bases not actually
updating with the newscan date and still have 1000+ unread in one base.
FTN and AreaFix and RESCANs are all related. But your new scan date on a BBS has nothing to do with FTN. I am not sure I am understanding your situation here.
... I'm not a complete idiot... Several parts are missing!
My appologies, I will try and explain better. Basically when I join a
new FTN and request a %RESCAN to areafix from the hub to download all previous echonet messages let's say it download 20k messages. That is
all fine and well, the problem is it shows
20k new messages, and when selecting 'Set Newscan Date' as a user in the Messages menu of the BBS, and select lets say todays date. Then, I go
open the Indexed MSG Reader, and the majority of message bases still
show New with messages much older than the
date selected.

I assumed maybe this was just a fluke the first time. So, I did it
again, same results for that single FTN. Since then, I have seen it
with two other FTN's that I have setup.
Any ideas?
