  • Long subject lines

    From deon@1337:2/101 to Meatlotion on Fri Jul 16 23:33:22 2021
    Hey ML,

    I'm seeing the occasional packet now that is failing because it has a long subject line.

    Are you splitting up messages and putting a "(n/x)" on the subject, eg (1/3)? It might be those additional chars are taking the subjects over the 71 char limit.

    I'm seeing the occasional packet now that is failing because it has a long subject line.

    I'm seeing the same thing here, also only occasionally.

    Details from the last one I had:

    2021-07-12 07:02:35 Grunged message (type 2) from 1337:3/100 at offset 22076 in packet: C:\sbbs\fido\inbound\074d98f0.pkt
    2021-07-12 07:02:35 Bad packet detected: C:\sbbs\fido\inbound\074d98f0.pkt

    Hmmm ok it looks like I still have a little homework to fix up. Thanks for spotting it and letting me know.
