(But see below.) Should the        session be terminated accidentally while sending the listed        files, the flow file must be processed in the next session from        the beginning.               RR> and the next time my BBS executes a TOSS it can not find the        RR> x.XXX.XXX.X.CLO file, does not create a new one and drops out of the        RR> tosser.              That is a bug.               RR> I had to write a script to check to see if the file exists, and if not        RR> create an empty .CLO file then run the tosser. I would like IF        RR> POSSIBLE for BINKd NOT to delete this file.              That is not possible.                     Bye, Wilfred.              --- FMail-lnx64 2.3.2.4-B20240523        * Origin: FMail development HQ (2:280/464)       SEEN-BY: 4/0 88/0 90/0 93/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187       SEEN-BY: 129/14 305 153/757 7715 154/10 30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0       SEEN-BY: 221/6 226/30 227/114 229/110 114 200 206 275 300 307 317       SEEN-BY: 229/426 428 470 550 664 700 705 240/1120 5832 263/1 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 5006 5555 291/111 292/854 8125 301/1 310/31       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 341/66 200 234 342/200 343/107 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 460/58 467/888 633/280 712/848 770/1 900/0 102 106 902/0       SEEN-BY: 902/19 26 905/0 5020/400       PATH: 280/464 341/66 902/26 229/426           |
