   Hello Doctor!   
      
   01 Sep 21 15:15, you wrote to Nick Andre:

   And another option is to send the mail via a BATCH file.   
   You can do this after every visit to your BBS by using the DBUTIL utility.   
      
   POLL   
   ====   
   The DBUTIL POLL commands adds a POLL entry to the disk-based queue.   
   Depending on the priority, the system will be called either immediatelyor   
   during the next applicable mail event.   
   When you POLL a system,D'Bridge will call to see if you have any mail waiting.   
   The syntax for POLL is:   
      
    C:\DB> DBUTIL [priority] POLL 
        ie.        C:\DB> IMMEDIATE POLL 1:105/3              I think you were looking for this.       This email was sent using DBUTIL.              Kind regards,       Leo                     --- GoldED+/W32-MSVC 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: ------ (2:280/2040)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 90/1 103/705 105/81 114/709 120/340 123/131 124/5016       SEEN-BY: 129/305 154/10 203/0 221/0 1 226/30 227/114 702 229/424 426       SEEN-BY: 229/428 550 664 700 1017 240/1120 5138 5411 5824 5832 5853       SEEN-BY: 249/1 206 317 400 280/464 2040 5003 5006 282/1038 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 301/1 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 633/280 2452/250 2454/119       PATH: 280/2040 5003 464 240/5832 229/426
