   NB>Hello Daryl,   
      
   Hi, Nick...   
      
   NB>Synchronet does not, and has never required a nodelist for anything. Synchro   
   NB>only requires you setup your sbbsecho.cfg (or echocfg as a GUI) properly. It   
   NB>basically a route table of sorts.   
      
     Having only run SBBS for 2 years (compared to 13 years under GT Power   
   on dial-up, then running VADV32 ever since), it has been a long time   
   since I worked with it.   
      
   NB>It's probably your mailer that requires that nodelist, but Synchronet doesn'   
   NB>all.   
      
     It's the VFIDO Mailer with Virtual Advanced...although Internet Rex   
   does have a directory for nodelist files.   
      
   NB>He probably set up his "mailbox" or "filebox" as the same directory as the   
   NB>outbound directory. That's usually the only way you will start receiving the   
   NB>.?lo, .try, .bsy/.csy etc files - which is of course the wrong way to setup    
   NB>BSO mailer.   
      
     I guess that's what he did...but I went back to QWK Networking. I do   
   a manual telnet logon to his system once a day, to send the outgoing REP   
   packet, and scan for a new QWK packet.   
      
   NB>Sure, but you seem to be left with some extra cruft, eh? (.clo/.dlo/.hlo fil   
   NB>as well as possibly others)   
      
     I just had the batchfiles delete that extra junk.
