I       did try multiple netmail areas. But there doesn't seem to be an option to       assign a particular aka to the/a netmail area. BBBS sends the netmail to the       correct FTN address. It looks like the mail processor BBBS doesn't correctly       match my aka to the destination address. Im awaiting a response from the       author to make sure that the syntax is correct since BBBS uses regexps alot in       it's configuration and operation.              I am departing somewhat from what the BBBS documentation suggests in netmail       area setup. It doesn't mention any option for multiple netmail areas and puts       all netmails regardless of FTN in a single directory. I would prefer to have       seperate netmail areas for each FTN. If there is away to make it work I will       find it. :-)              Jeff              --- BBBS/Li6 v4.10 Dada-2        * Origin: The OuijaBoard - Anoka, MN (1:282/1031)    |
