    From Sean Rima@2:263/1 to All on Sat Dec 27 15:08:58 2025

    Hello everybody!

    Using a point aka, I sent a %HELP and got this in return:

    FMail AreaMgr status report for 618:500/1.2 on 618:500/1

    You are connected to 17 areas.

    Node status : ACTIVE
    Notify : OFF
    Compression : None
    - available : NONE ARC ZIP

    Use %HELP in a message to FMail for more information.

    How do I get it to respond to %HELP commands properly :)

    That could explain it! ;-)
