      MSGID: 1:229/426 463C6904       REPLY: 1:340/1000 aef2e886       TZUTC: -0500       On 01 Apr 20 04:50:00, Don Lowery said the following to Nick Andre:              DL> What part of the manual do I need to be reading to have D'Bridge only mail       DL> the packets from/to the hubs...while FMail or FastEcho do the tossing into        DL> BBS software?               New D'Bridge users asking for help must buy the first round of drinks...              In Config-Packet/Mail, change Inbound Mail handling to External.              That will shut off the internal tosser. You will be responsible for calling        your tosser somehow to handle the incoming; but BinkDOS2 should be creating a       semaphore/dummy file called DBRIDGE.UFM (Unpack/Forward Mail) whenever        anything is received. A simple looping batch file could check for this and        call your tosser accordingly. Erase that semaphore when done tossing.              You can use the semaphore/dummy file DBRIDGE.RSN to force-rescan the outgoing        Queue once Fmail/Fastecho have created outgoing packets; since D'Bridge has no       way of knowing what is in the outgoing Queue when set in External        operation unless its specifically told.              Any tosser you use with D'Bridge must specifically state that it supports        D'Bridge or ArcMail-Style Attachments. Do NOT use BSO or other queue-styles.              Nick              --- Renegade vY2Ka2        * Origin: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators? (1:229/426)    |
