   Hello Wilfred!   
      
   23 Apr 14 11:17, you wrote to me:   
      
      
    RC>> What attracted me to Fmail was it is win32.. after so many   
    RC>> executions, fastecho would stop scanning within the environment,   
    RC>> I suspect because of being 16 bit and calling command.com.... I   
    RC>> would have to invoke fastecho manually.   
      
    WV> This seems rather strange behavior, if you are restarting it every   
    WV> time...   
      
   Within the same batch file tho.. I have a menu'd batch file..   
      
    WV>>> make-over of how fsetup works anyway, the current userbase is   
    WV>>> used to how things work. But of course that doesn't mean there   
    WV>>> isn't room for improvement on some of the specifics...   
      
    RC>> Are you familiar with Frontdoors setup program and its layout?   
      
    WV> Not any more... It must be at least 10 years ago when I last used   
    WV> it...   
      
   Categories arrayed horizontally with drop down menu's, fire up fastechoes to   
   take a look.. I am you should copy verbosely, but fsetup is crowded on the   
   left.   
      
   Oh and one more thing, where is the command to delete the arcmail bundles   
   after they get tossed?   
      
   I have to run a post toss cmd file like so:   
      
      
   === Cut ===   
   @echo off   
      
   cdd d:\fidonet\in   
      
   move %1 d:\fidonet\in\archive   
      
   === Cut ===   
      
      
   Now I am not deleteing them here, but I have to move them off else I   
   perpetually toss them.
