    Glad to see you, Alan!

    Well here's a thing. Discovered *almost* by accident.

    Send a netmail to my system using the PING address and when it bounces back
    it includes the TUTC kludge.

    Feel free to try it out (anyone) PING@4:920/1

    I sent a ping to 920/90 via 920/1. Naturally I got no response and I hope it will die a natuaral death at some point.

    I sent another to 4:920/1 but I haven't seen a reply yet.

    Yes, it caused a minor bounce/loop here for a while. All sorted out now

    *** [Netmail-to-Telegram address: 474405162@2:460/256]

    ... Tag, you are IT!

    I tried it here and it worked out just fine! ;) Is it a SBBSEcho
    functionality?

    Yup. Yet another way that SBBS has built in functionality...

    I can see the nodelist getting a bunch of PING flags.. :-)
