    I have, as of today, two point systems at the same laptop: One fo FidoNET, running Crashmail/binkp/GoldED, and the other running Mystic in which I am replying to this message. :)

    I use the BBSs as my base, and interact with them using offline mail.

    I used to do that at the beginning, but started to experience those QWK-related bugs with Mystic (same message id that got fixed at A35), so I
    had to be creative.

    I had Synchronet, but since A35's bugfix has really made a difference to Mystic's QWK support, which has been rock solid since.

    Indeed. Now I am having issues with a few JAM areas and lastread
    pointers.. I think I will just reset everything and try it again.

    I had that issues with pre-A35 versions, but recent Mystic releases have been no issue for me with lastread pointers.

    For some weird reason, my two biggest message areas (from Fidonet BR) are not storing the lastread pointers. I think I'll run some message base maintenance tools and see what happens.

    Sounds a little different to my issue. I found I was not getting all of the messages I should have been, and had to manually set the lastread pointers
    ack.

    Yes, it is... Somehow I believe that in my cases both JAM areas got corrupted, I'll try to run some maintenance into it and see what happens.
