Hello David,

Just so you have the correct terminology:

Your /sig/ is "David"
Your /tearline/ is "--- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20180707"
Your /Origin/ is " * Origin: " and what follows it.

That's great news! The bottom of your messages look much better now. 
Thank you.

The JAMPATH keyword is only for the location of echomail.jam and 
netmail.jam files, which you probably aren't using at this point. It has 
nothing to do with where your message bases are.

If you'd like full access to your message bases, without having to do 
multiple AREADEF lines, you probably need to create an AREAS.BBS from 
Mystic, and then use AREAFILE to point to that..

1) Create areas.bbs from Mystic, and remember where you created it.
2) Comment out all of your AREADEF lines in /this/ golded.cfg.
3) When all AREADEF lines are commented out: In the same golded.cfg:

AREAFILE AREASBBS /path/to/areas.bbs

Regards,
Nick
