  • Corrupt Packet Clue?

    From Barry Martin@1:261/20 to Nigel Reed on Thursday, March 12, 2026 08:39:28
    Hi Nigel!

    Nothing major just noted a strange occurrance in a message from August
    Abolins to me in ILink_Comedy. The ending:


    ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

    Never heard of such a thing as to affect sleep. Doing a mental
    inventory on my sleeping position over the years, I have slept in
    every direction! But the bottom line has been the comfort of the
    bed.--- SBBSecho 3.11-Linux st_buffer * Origin: ILink:End Of The

    The tearbar isn't starting it's own line as it should. Just wondering
    if this is a clue to your occasional corrupt packet. Check his uploaded
    post for an oddball character?
