On 04 Nov 2024, Wilfred van Velzen said the following...

 Wv>  JH> if ( length($area) == 0 && uc($toname) eq "PING" && uc($fromname) ne
 Wv>  JH> "PING" )
 Wv> 
 Wv> If I read that correctly... There is a use case to allow the from name
 Wv> in the received message to be "PING" !

That line appears in the original here:

https://github.com/huskyproject/hpt/blob/master/misc/pong.pl

So I left it as it.


http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-5001.006 does say under 5.10. Robot flags:

WARNING: the sender`s name (in either direction) must *NEVER* be "PING".


Should that line in FTS-5001 be removed or modified?
