That's what I would have thought too. After I typed the message, I discovered
the file scan pointer date, and noticed it was for the 6th of april, I changed
it to the 9th, but still it listed all the files. I'll try disabling the DD
mods.

 DM> Which feature is that exaclty?

Well, I'm not sure what they are called in synchronet of the top of my head, but
say they're file groups and file areas, it seems to split up some of the areas
into sub areas, like this

File Group
|
|--File Area
|--File Area 2
|--File SubArea
|   |-- File Area 3
|   |-- File Area 4
|--File Area 5

There is an option in scfg, under file groups: 

Virtual Sub-Directories

with the option of:
  Internal Code Suffix
  Short Name
  Long Name

I thought maybe that was the feature that is causing the sub area

Anyway, I'll try with the dd stuff disabled

Thanks for the help :)
