ummm... that 1:1/0 entry was in the very first log block that you sent me...

i do not have the facilities to capture pkts any more... i stopped doing that back in 2018...

nope... Type 2 family FTN packets haven't changed their format in decades...

two dashes starting in column 1 are the internet email tear line...
three dashes and a space starting in column 1 are the FTN tear line...
there's a lot of softwqre that doesn't catch tear lines properly... actually they catch more than tear lines as tear lines so IME, when i want/need to delineate a block of text, i use a line of equals signs or i use "snip" markers like seen above... the keys to the snip markers being 1) the leading spaces, 2) more than three dashes, and 3) the other text in the line... but even these steps don't help broken that sees any set of three dashes anywhere in a message as a tear line...
