I tried that many times without success. Maybe that is something new
with version 48?
I am running version 47. I want to upgrade, but I am afraid of screwing things up and
losing everything.

I just re-read my response, and I was wrong.. What you need to do is tab over each message base you want to do a global change to, when all are chosen cursor back up and hit /G for Global, once that is done, you will get a menu which allows you to change any item and all of the chosen messages bases will be changed.. I knew I forgot something.. ;)

I was wrong when I said I was using A47. It is A48, but I still have the problem of not being able to Tab the various downlinks and link them to a specific conference area or globally to all of the conference areas. I can tab for other functions, but not for the Export To: field.

Other than that, I love Mystic!

A48 is solid, I have been running it now since it's release. A49 had issues at first, I believe g00r00 fixed the major issues before he got busy again.. In additon to my last message, here goes, after hitting the /G to global change when you get the menu cursor down to Export Add, change the NO to a YES by hitting enter then cursor over to Export Add and hit enter then choose the echomail nodes you want to export to. I use this function anytime I add a new net and it works fine.. Let me know if you need any assistance with it I can show you in a zoom meet or jitsi meet (I use Jitsi more then zoom).

Doing as you instructed, I went to the Export and tabbed all bases, and it worked. I got
the CTL-U prompt which I never got before. Thanks.
