       NA> The biggest challenge with BBS software that uses proprietary storage        NA> formats for mail, is what to do when it comes time to make them play        NA> nicely with 3rd-party software to actually do Fido stuff. At the bare        NA> minimum, the BBS software has to have a way to at least create        NA> *.MSG-formatted mail files, so that software like D'Bridge can pack it        NA> up and build an outbound Queue entry.              That explains a lot. I am in contact with Steve Winn, VADV support. I will       pass this info on to him.               NA> So the goal is to figure out how VADV can work with *.MSG storage for        NA> Netmail and a method known as ArcMail file-attaches. This will allow        NA> D'Bridge to work with your BBS software; though I will recommend the way        NA> is to allow D'Bridge to process all Netmail AND Echomail outgoing        NA> messages using the internal tosser.              Ok, then I will look into this also              Ruben Figueroa aka Zazz       Mystic Prison Board Sysop       telnet://pb.darktech.org:24       Web: www.rdfig.net              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A31 (Windows)        * Origin: Mystic Prison Board*Mesquite Tx*pb.darktech.org:24 (1:124/5014)    |
