Each sub-board's "Newsgroup" name can accommodate a length of up to 63 characters (no spaces). Likewise, when exporting message areas from SCFG or SBBSecho (e.g. to an ''areas.bbs'' file), if a "Newsgroup" name is defined for a message area, it will be used for the exported echo tag of that exported area.
