Ummmm, no. Uns means Unsent. Had the message been sent, that would change
to Snt, aka Sent.

That's what it looks like, but that isn't how it was addressed when I told
GoldEd to reply to your message in Netmail. Matter of fact, when I tell GD
to reply to any of your messages, it uses your MSGID (1:154/10@1:154/10).

Not that any ftn compliant reader can address.

 NB> Whether GoldEd reads it correctly, is GoldEd's fault.

Wrong. If your messages had a ftn compliant MSGID, then there wouldn't be
any problem.

 NB> Apparantly, you think it's grabbing it's information from the MSGID

That's correct and so is Mark.

Funny how every other ftn compliant software programs work like they
should and Swindler's doesn't...have you ever thought about that?
