   Mark,   
      
   ML>his system shouldn't be sending the ?LO files... the ?UT files, on the other   
   ML>hand, are PKT files... they contain netmail or echomail... your downlink has   
   ML>got their stuff configured properly...   
      
     Yeah, he had his netmail routing all screwed up as well, sending stuff   
   through a FIDONet address, instead of through the network it should've   
   been. Plus, he says that "Synchronet doesn't require a nodelist". Every   
   BBS package I've run (GT Power under dial-up, then Synchronet and   
   Virtual Advanced) has required a nodelist to do netmail.   
      
     I told him I was going to stick to QWK Networking of it, as I was   
   afraid we were going to anger the Region 19 Coordinator, if we kept that   
   up. I figured the problem was on his end.   
      
   ML>you mean SA0 TU2 and similar? those are bundles... they contain PKTs...   
      
     That's what I figured. Mail seems to be tossing OK.

   ML>EMSI works over telnet ;)   
      
     However, while VADV32 has a Windows setup, it basically is a "DOS"   
   setup, because it does NOT have DOOR32.SYS capability. I've heard talk   
   about plans for that and upgrading it to 32-bit software, but that's   
   all...just talk. But, I'd be curious to know how to get EMSI to work   
   under telnet.
