      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> DS> Since my BBS is telnet/web only (no dial-up), even though Virtual       ML> DS> Advanced has a deal to "check for FIDOMail (EMSI)" at logon, I have       ML> DS> that disabled.              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.              Daryl       ---        þ OLX 1.53 þ Monday is an awful way to spend 1/7 of your week.                                                                                                                                                                  --- Virtual Advanced Ver 2 for DOS         * ORIGIN: The Thunderbolt BBS - wx1der.dyndns.org (1:19/33)    |
