I mastered the internal FREQ server setup maybe a year ago. Now that       you raised the matter, I've realized there ain't no X? nodelist flag for my       main node & RC AKA. I think I pulled the flags when I was troubleshooting a       problem with my DOS BATch FREQ handler, which was okay; it was just missing       some supporting files which disappeared over years of disuse. The flag should       be XX, as for Argus I think. I'll try & get David to fix that ASAP or with       the next necessary region update.              That's besides the point IAC: FMail knows nothing of the nodelist IIRC. I'm a       little remote from my PC now but I've checked a FMail text output file that       makes no mention of a nodelist file in the config.              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.4.0        * Origin: Quinn's Rock vBox - sunny side up on the bookcase (3:640/1384)    |
