It is indeed, since it misses two of my doublechess games (though it catches
more games than my own attempt :-) ) - I play in 218, 219, s31, s23 and s53!

OK, just got your second message - you do seem to catch them all after all :-)

I know that, but for testing/checking purposes I used 'doublechess show ragnar all'
and also 'all show ragnar active' ?!?

Thus, we have confirmed that this is strange indeed ;-)

Cheers, ragnar the still puzzled showman

PS. Did some further testing - doublechess show <any guy> all give me just one
game; the format doublechess show <a guy> <another guy> <yet another> gives me
exactly one game, the first of <a guy> ... ?!?

I begin to suspect the other messages are bounced back, but have no idea why...
Richard, if you are listening in, do you preserve any sort of log on commands
given to pbmserv and what happens with the auto-mailed responses??
