• Export To setting when copying/pasting message bases

    Hello g00r00!

    Hope all is well with you!

    I just noticed a small thing when copying (/C) and pasting (/P) message bases:

    When first entering the copy of the message base (i.e., the pasted one), the Export To field shows the same setting as the original message base does, e.g. "1 node(s)":

    � Net Address � 618:500/27 (Micronet) Autosigs � Yes �
    � Export To � 1 node(s) Private � No �

    But when actually "entering" the Export To setting, the list shows no
    nodes:

    � Base Typ�������������������� EchoMail Exports ���������������������ple �
    � Newsgrou� ### Description Address �ple �
    � QWK Name� ������������������������������������������������������� �ple �
    � Echo Tag� �ple �
    � File Nam� � �
    � Path � � �
    � List ACS� � �
    � Read ACS� � �
    � Post ACS� �ead �
    � Sysop AC� �mrd �
    � List EAC� �mlst �
    � � � �
    � Net Addr� � �
    � Export T� � �
    � Origin � ������������������������������������������������������� � �
    � QWK Netw� Press / for command list � �
    � QWK Base����������������������������������������������������������� �

    When exiting the list and getting back to the message base settings,
    Export To now shows "0 node(s)":

    � Net Address � 618:500/27 (Micronet) Autosigs � Yes �
    � Export To � 0 node(s) Private � No �

    I believe the same thing happens if you enter the copied message base (the first time!), exit back to the list of message bases, and then re-enter the copied message base.

    Perhaps the Export To setting could be updated before the message base settings are displayed?

    (Not exporting a copied message base to any nodes makes sense, of course.)

    Just thought I would mention this.
    Many thanks in advance!

    Best regards
    Bj�rn
