Also, they should be addressed only to the BBSs that you directly connect to for forwarding. Further, it would be helpful if all BBSs rejected WP Bulletins. In BPQ, the settings can be found on the Main Configuration page, WP Params. Select "Send WPUpdates" and "Reject WP Bulls". Select "Type P" and then under "WP Destinations" add each of your forwarding partners in this way: WP@<BBS 1 CALLSIGN> WP@<BBS 2 CALLSIGN> etc. There is no need to use the full H-route here and by not doing so you can prevent WP messages from being routed across the network instead of just one hop to your neighbor. ----- == How WP updates work. When a user on your BBS updates their information (name, location, home BBS, etc) your system updates its WP database. During the next housekeeping maintenance time, a WP update message will be created and sent out to your neighbors informing them of this change. This will lead to their WP databases being updated and the change that came from your BBS to be propagated out to their neighbors, and so on and so forth. Eventually, everyone on the globe will have the update that originated from your BBS. ----- Original discussion regarding WP updates is available at https://groups.io/g/bpq32/message/41214. 73, Eric WG3K
