      Hi! Wilfred,              On Sat, 09 Sep 17, you wrote to me:                      PQ>> I will fix this schamozzle tomorrow and give fmail         PQ>> scan a proper workout, along with some other evil         PQ>> plans I have for FMail.        WvV> Ok, keep us informed!              Well, I had this itch to fix it...               PQ>> If I wasn't up to my armpits in EwwToob (YT), I'd do        PQ>> it now. Priorities...        WvV> If you mean YouTube, yes I know, it's addictive! ;)              Yes. Then there are times I end up in a sort of Twilight Zone for hours if my       attention wanders from YT to Vimeo and LiveLeak. Anyway, I have a tall tale       to tell...              This morning I modified GoldEd's config over to reading the FMail config       rather than an Areas.Bbs file exported from it, after I found & re-enabled the       GoldEd config switch to convert DOS paths to a Linux one in tosser area config       files. (It took a little fine-tuning but in the end it worked.) So, after       doing the right thing with the scan always FMail switch, I went through the       motions of another post test. GoldEd created the echomail.jam file like       this...              --- 8< ---       C:\opt\ftn\fido\msgbase\fmail_help 867       --- 8< ---              Which is fine since the FMail envar translation will convert it back to a       Linux path. (I say back because FMail initially sucked in the Areas.Bbs file       from CM II, _with_ Linux paths. And they stuck! FMail's area manager has       Linux paths!) So, running the sendmail.sh produced...              --- 8< ---       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL FMail-lnx32-2.1.0.18-Beta20170905 - Scan       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL Echomail message, area FMAIL_HELP       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL Update /opt/ftn/fido/outbound/02800180.hlo       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL Mail bundle already going from 3:640/1384 to       3:640/384       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL Netmail: 0, Personal: 0, Hudson: 0, JAMbase: 1       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL Msgbase net: 0, echo: 1, dup: 0, bad: 0       > 09 Sep 17 20:56:14 FMAIL Scan Active: 0.162 sec.       --- 8< ---              Neat, huh? I shall admonish myself tomorrow for not saying "no" enough       times. :) Thank you for your kind assistance.              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Paul's Win98SE VirtualBox        * Origin: Quinn's Post - Maryborough, Queensland, OZ (3:640/384)    |
