    I've been testing my setup by deleting the "BBS Ads" message area in fidonet. That area is in my areas.bbs with my uplink, and of course backbone.na. SBBSECHO keeps treating as a passthru. I'm just trying to figure how to get sbbsecho to "create" a new message area.

    SBBSecho can't modify your msgs.ini file. But you *can* import the badareas.lst file (created optionally by SBBSecho) into SCFG (even automatically) if you really want to.
