    correct, you need linked messages for Mystic to see them and then
    jump to them using those keys

    Yep, that's what I'm realizing... The question now is: why are some messages linked properly and others not? Maybe it's how people reply to messages, or how their board is configured?

    Message linking relies on the MSGID and REPLY kludge in the mail (I quoted the kludges from your mail). Some older software do not add a MSGID and/or REPLY kludge. It often happens with QWK offline readers. No idea if it is a problem with the reader or the BBS (QWK is weird).

    Yep, you need to use LinkMessages with mutil. I run that after every
    toss.

    Oohoo, I don't believe this is something I have configured. I'll have look!

    Thanks Oli, I'll have a closer look at those headers!
