  • QWK packet error

    From BiggieB@VERT/JJAMBBS to all on Thursday, September 17, 2026 21:38:51
    I think we lost power when my BBS was processing a QWK polling from VERT and I have been getting this error now. Not sure exactly what happened but the message sub is blank now. ALL the other subs seem to be working fine.

    Any idea on how to fix this?

    Thanks a bunch!

    See below:
