Makes sense that you're using another program outside D'Bridge to       do the heavy work.               NA> calling your tosser somehow to handle the incoming; but BinkDOS2 should        NA> be creating a semaphore/dummy file called DBRIDGE.UFM (Unpack/Forward        NA> Mail) whenever anything is received. A simple looping batch file could        NA> check for this and call your tosser accordingly. Erase that semaphore        NA> when done tossing.              That's a good way to have the tosser find what it needs to do.                NA> You can use the semaphore/dummy file DBRIDGE.RSN to force-rescan the        NA> outgoing Queue once Fmail/Fastecho have created outgoing packets; since        NA> D'Bridge has no way of knowing what is in the outgoing Queue when set in        NA> External operation unless its specifically told.              Calling *.UFM after polling...then *.RSN for outgoing packets. Very nice.               NA> Any tosser you use with D'Bridge must specifically state that it        NA> supports D'Bridge or ArcMail-Style Attachments. Do NOT use BSO or other        NA> queue-styles.              Am so happy you spelled this out...since you might find it by digging...but       stating it plainly saves a ton of time.              Thank you again for all your help. Gotta a 5:30 AM workday tomorrow...but am       off at 10:30 AM to head back at 7 PM Friday evening...so should have time to       get this set up.              ACME BBS-Member of fsxNet/WWIVNet/SciNet/AmigaNet/VKRadio/FidoNet/MicroNet.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A46 2020/03/18 (Windows/32)        * Origin: ACME BBS-W.Coyote & D.Brown are our best users.
