So on 2oFB, I have several FTNs. I created custom message headers - ANSI screens that change how message scans, new posts and reading of messages looks. 

I used many !CL codes.. (! = |) in the To:, Subject:, Network:, Base Name:, etc etc...

However the NETWORK tag is anchored to the message network that the user is CURRENTLY IN. Meaning, as a user newscans messages on 2oFB across many FTNs, whichever Conference the user was in when the newscan was started is displayed during the entire newscan...

This means that as the user goes thru different FTNs, the Network: line is incorrect for 90% of the time - and I wonder... how did I f00k this up??? And how can I correct it???

As a user newscans, I want it to display the Message Conference that is being newscanned, not the msg conference that the user is currently IN. 

.... makes sense??? I messed it up by modifying the message headers - but is there some other !CODE that I can use that will fix this issue???
