The message you read was maybe one from the internet-guys. Well, they are a little bit strange sometimes and nobody really knows why they invaded this echo.

Oliver is a Microsoft Windows based FTSC compliant message editor.
Designed for Sysops and Point operators, Oliver works on .MSG style (Opus,
Maximus 1.x, etc) message bases. It provides full support for 4D addressing
(Zone:Net/Node.Point).
Oliver is a full featured message editor providing such basic features as an
address book, message forwarding, copying, moving, printing and saving of
messages to disk files. In addition Oliver adds an front end to AreaFix,
AreaMgr and RAID.
And of course, Oliver provides these functions in a friendly, consistant
interface that is expected of a Windows application, including full
Cut/Copy/Paste functionality.
Oliver is available on WinNet nodes around the world or direct from me @
1:142/222 @2400 baud or 1:142/1 @ HST speeds.
Thanks for your interest!
