Those messages mean that posts from 1:3634/58 are being rejected. Is 1:3634/58 your address? What are you trying to import messages from your own address?

Those log messages are not mentioning posts from any point system. Did you find log messages that refer to posted messages (echomail) from the point system?

Do you mean areas.bbs (not "area.bbs")? What do you have set in echocfg->Paths and Filenames->Area File?

If 1:3634/58 is *your* addres, it would not normally be listed in the area file - that's likely a mistake. I would expect to see just *one* linked node on each of those lines and that would be the point system's address.

It looks wrong.
