    Alas my system merged this in another echo... puzzling how at the
    moment... appreciate the reply!

    put your data files in their own sub directory for each msg network
    you have.

    That isn't necessary and certainly is not the default way.

    But it does keep the directories a little tidier.

    ... Remember how simple life was when there were only two sexes?

    sbbsecho: free pkt->filename on fopen failure in find_stray_packets (CID 530517)

    When the new outpkt_t cannot be opened for append, free(pkt) was called
    without first releasing the strdup'd pkt->filename, leaking the path
    for every stray packet whose append-open fails.

    Log Message:
    sbbsecho: cast away unchecked chmod/remove returns in alter_areas (CIDs 462777, 515046)

    Both calls in alter_areas() are best-effort: the chmod is a permission
    preserve before rename, and the remove is documented to be expected to
    fail when the file doesn't exist. Make the ignore-return intent explicit
    with (void) casts so Coverity stops flagging them as CHECKED_RETURN.
