    I just updated Magicka this weekend and I am now getting an odd error when
    I start it up:

    Invalid QWK conference for area Local_Main

    In my localmail.ini file, I have that area set up as follows:

    [Local_Main]
    Read Sec Level = 10
    Write Sec Level = 10
    Path = /home/bbs/MagickaBBS/msgs/general
    Type = Echo
    QWK Name = MAIN
    QWK Conference = 1

    Any ideas? Is '1' not a valid QWK number? I have other areas in the same
    ini file with single-digit numbers.

    thanks!

    Area 1 is used for private email, I had meant to reserve it in the past
    for when I did implement email in qwk, but forgot to, so when I put
    private email i had to reserve it.

    Any other one digit number should work just fine.

    Thanks. I think that other BBS systems, like synchronet, use 0 for the
    private email QWK number so I did not think of that being an issue. Glad I asked. :)

    Oh? Hmm, maybe that's why I hadn't reserved 1 in the past. I thought
    they used 1 perhaps I can change it to 0.

    I've just pushed some fixes to use conference 0 instead of 1 for email..
    you should be able to use conference 1 again.

    Well, the message went away and nothing else appears to be amiss, so
    I think it is working. Thanks!
