Maximus uses the *.msg format. I sent a        DW> test message to the FSX_NET hub robot using the D'Bridge editor and as        DW> soon as I exited the editor D'Bridge sent it out to my hub. I looked        DW> in my c:\max\msg\fsx_tst directory and saw that 12.msg was created by        DW> the built in editor and sent out. I logged into Maximus and sent out        DW> another message to the robot and it just sat there. I looked in the        DW> message directory and saw that message as 13.msg. D'Bridge did nothing        DW> with that message. i can see the message in the built in editor of        DW> D'Bridge but when I exit it ells me that 1 message scanned, none        DW> packed. I guess my question is what does it take to get D'Bridge to        DW> send the message out that was created by Maximus? Maximus will exit        DW> with a errorlevel when a user hangs up after entering an echomail or        DW> netmail. Do I need to tell Maximus to send D'Bridge a semaphore to        DW> rescan and pack?              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: --- |
