That shouldn't matter for a rescan. The full message is already stored
in there...

In case of hudson also?

My DUPE area is in hudson. There were no problems importing the big messages in there.

Good to know.

Can it store that big messages?

Apparently...

Cannot remember the limits of HMB anymore but it has some. :)

The "biggest" limit is, the maximum 16MB size of the total message base.

And max 200 areas. Well it was good enough for SuperBBS. :)

Re: rescanning and long messages

It seems that FMail (at least the Win32 version) has issues when rescanning echos that have long messages.

I've done some test and checked the PKTs -- long messages seem to be cut at around 40K.

Probably a snippit from code back when some BBSes would crash the message base on ones longer than that.
