    In a message on Wednesday 01-19-16 Alan Zisman said to All:

    The only messages I'm seeing in the Windows echo area are three with
    dates 2021-10-03, and the board I'm using for access gives me an
    error message if I try to view the contents.

    So I'm posting this test message to see if I can view its contents.

    I can see it, and it's dated jan.19th 2016 and the time is 19:nn.
    If you can, try to download a QWK packet.

    Have a good night,

    Holger

    For the several days following posting my TEST message, I continued to see nothing in the WINDOWS echo - not even my TEST.... (accessing Fido using Thunderbird via The-eStar).

    I got personal emails from Jean and Ed mentioning that they'd seen it - finally, I tried Unsubscribing from WINDOWS and re-subscribing; that downloaded
    990 message heads, including the most recent ones. (I marked everything prior to 2016-01-01 as 'read' and have read through this year's set of messages, replying to several.

    So I think I'm back in the game.
