      Hi! rick,              On 09/14/2016 08:56 AM, you wrote:               PQ>> links, i.e. as a terminal endpoint.               rc> Why??? And Yes I eventually will need to have support to feed downstream              It strips SEENBYs. In my case it was doing this with inbound out-of-zone       echomail, since I had created this node specifically to interface with my Z1 &       Z2 friends.               rc> I have the manual from the other site github or something... but        rc> crashmail doesn't seem to generate PKT's when I do              Kewl.               rc> crashmail SETTINGS crashmail.prefs SCAN              I didn't/don't want to say too much as my config is somewhat tainted, though       at times it seemed possessed. Since CM acts as the go-getter for both Golded       & JamNNTPd, I've wrapped CM in Toss & Scan shell scripts that look for various       semaphores depending on whether CM should be processing netmail &/or echomail.              To put it simply, the guts of their operation takes the form of: "export" the       path&filename of the CM prefs file to an envar, and then 'crashmail SCAN' or       'crashmail TOSS'.              The Scan shell script is quite complex with three or four multi-level       if-else-fi tests, looking for semaphores. If there is a difficult way of       doing things, then that's what I've managed to do.               rc> If I was going to use Husky I may as well just run DOSBox and setup        rc> FD, but since my local net uses Binkd and I need binkp that is not        rc> an option. Or even go dig out the telebits and V.90/92 modems in the        rc> shed and run it that way....              My thoughts exactly, also. I've looked at several options of recent months,       and nothing comes close. I'm holding out till Wilfred van Velzen comes good       with a Linux flavour of FMail.              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Thunderbird/31.4.0        * Origin: Quinn's Rock vBox - sunny side up on the bookcase (3:640/1384)    |
