1. First in order to start compress forwarding you need to have your
INIT.SRV set up correctly
# Use (when possible) forward type FBB (OK )
##############################################################################
# New in 5.15c45-51: Parametres:
# 1 : A space is mandatory before the @ in a send message command
# 2 : The length of the fields of a hierarchical address is
not tested to be 6 characters
# 4 : The header line of a message is not truncated to the space
before the 79th character
#* 8 : Header MBL/RLI
# 16 : If there is no BBS field, the callsign of the BBS is sent to the
PMS
#* 32 : Deletes the DATA messages sent to SYSOP
# 64 : Don't use the BID recovered from headers and use a new one
# 128: Accepts forwarding only from pre-declared BBS
#* 256: WP Messages are not held.
#* 512: XForwarding protocole has priority on FBB protocole.
# 1024: Generation of an alternate BID like F6FBB-12345 (for dual BBS site)
# 2048: Checksum unvalidated on XFwd.
# 4096: Test of callsigns is less strict. Allows all "callsigns"
as long
# as they have one figure (0-9) anywhere in
the callsign.
OK 288 <----
*** make sure this is set to ok
##############################################################################
#
# Use (when possible) compressed forward (OK or NO)
#
# Add 1 if forward-resume is allowed (should normally be..)
##############################################################################
# New in 5.15c51:
# Add 2 if XFWD is allowed ********* FWD TYPE BINARY/COMPRESSED
#NO 0
OK 3 <---- ***

2. Then you need to explicitly indicate in your forward file to use
compress forward.

3. Then be sure to turn off the echo by putting a "." in
front of your callsign.
See 2. above
4. Other things that might effect fbb are located in your PORT.SYS file:
MaxFra- try reducing to 1
PacLen - Set to 230
MaxBloc - try setting to less than 10
A good starting point for Port.Sys is below
