    Log Message:
    Replace almost all references to AreaFix with AreaMgr or AreaManager

    "AreaFix" is a proper product name. Though it's been defunct and unsupported for decades, we still should not confuse sysops and historians: the general term for what AreaFix did/does is Area Management, aka Conference Management.

    The sbbsecho.ini key names are unchanged and the destination netmail address for AreaManager requests can still be "AreaFix" (though "SBBSecho" is still supported as well).

    Add the "Ignore Packed Foreign NetMail" option

    ... that Deuce asked for in issue #1003

    I do find it a little unnerving that a message in a received packet will just disappear into the ether, but it was simple to implement, so might as well.
    I spent more time word-smithing/wrapping the help text than anything else. :-)
