   Automatic Tossing of Inbound Mail

   Hello Robert,   
      
   >I was wondering how to get BBBS.EXE or BBBSD.EXE to automatically toss inbound   
   > mail packets once the system receives them from an uplink or downlink?   
      
   There are several ways that that you can get "BBBS BOGUS" to process incoming   
   and/or outgoing mail. With messages written on the BBS I have BBBS exit with   
   an errorlevel which the batch file then calls BBBS BOGUS to scan the mail out.   
      
   For incoming mail/files from an uplink I have either the BinkP part of BBBS or   
   Radius mailer watch for the existence of mail or files and then call BBBS to   
   toss/process them. I guess you could even setup a script to watch for mail or   
   files or, setup a cron job event that the OS manages to process the mail/files.
