  • Issue With Message Importing

    From Khronos@VERT/CWSHACK to All on Sunday, October 11, 2026 23:06:27
    Hi,
    I am trying to import some messages into an area through a rescan and even though I have message limits turned off and crc checks disabled I still get errors about messages not being imported because of ageing limits.
    It is as if the date restrictions are not being lifted somehow.
    I am using Synchronet version 3.20 in Windows for the import process.

    Set EchoCfg->EchoMail Settings->Maxmium Age of Imported EchoMail to "None".

    I did not know that Sbbsecho had a setting for this itself. I thought this was only managed at the message echo section of the system.
    I live and learn on this one.
