The bottom of your messages look much better now.        NB> Thank you.              Sure, looks better but still missing a tagline and some more info I would like       to put, but that'll do for now.               >> Noty sure how to have golded read the messagebase directly which I        >> know it's JAM but JAMPATH pointing to D:\BBS\MYSTIC\msgs does not        >> load any message base. So my solution here is to copy/paste all        >> AREADEFs to golded.cfg, dumb but is wat works for me ATM.               NB> The JAMPATH keyword is only for the location of echomail.jam and        NB> netmail.jam files, which you probably aren't using at this point. It        NB> has nothing to do with where your message bases are.               NB> If you'd like full access to your message bases, without having to do        NB> multiple AREADEF lines, you probably need to create an AREAS.BBS from        NB> Mystic, and then use AREAFILE to point to that..               NB> 1) Create areas.bbs from Mystic, and remember where you created it.        NB> 2) Comment out all of your AREADEF lines in /this/ golded.cfg.        NB> 3) When all AREADEF lines are commented out: In the same golded.cfg:               NB> AREAFILE AREASBBS /path/to/areas.bbs              Full path and file name, that might be where I'mm failing, mystic's areas.bbs       looks like this when I exported it:               |
