Subject: ACK packets?

Hi,

when sending A->B->C, then C can send ACKs back C->B->A.

But what exactly do these ACKs on A then?

http://www.nncpgo.org/ACK.html is not really talkative about that and 
explains, that one can send ACKs, but only nncp-xfer seems to support 
-keep, and the explanation suggests that these ACKs are used for manual 
administration.

I would have thought that regular messages generated from nncp-file or 
nncp-exec are kept after sending, until ACKed, and resent if not ACKed 
withon reasonable (=configurable) time.

regards
