Martin,              On 17 Oct 2020, Martin Foster said the following...                MF> Thanks, I'll have a look at that but in the meantime, I'm using a "quick        MF> 'n dirty" workaround by manually deleting the 'rogue' stuff from in        MF> front of the path to the filename in the .clo file.              It is a shame. I later, again, went through the dox and some captures but       couldn't spot why CM did what it did to you.               MF> Perhaps it's time to move on to something else such as hpt or FMail ?               I feel for you. CM was my all-time favourite following 20-odd years with       FastEcho. In my case I found with the version 0.71 distribution Linux       executables, and my own local compiled versions, that there is an inherent       hiccup in the inter-zonal operation of CM. Like FastEcho, CM has a native       'zonegate' mode that cannot be turned off.              I recommend FMail, in a Windows environment. On my main node I'm doing FMail       in Linux. (It's a pain for the present as it requires a Windows       configurator program.) It is a good old-style tosser, which shows its age in       some aspects. E.g. be prepard for a Hudson base requirement.              Good luck.              Cheers,       Paul.              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A46 2020/08/26 (Linux/32)        * Origin: Paul's Pile of Polygonal Pebbles (3:640/1138)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 19/10 90/1 120/340 123/131 154/10 203/0 221/0 1 6 242       SEEN-BY: 221/360 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 452 664 1016 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5411 5832 5853 249/206 317 280/464 5003 5555 292/8125       SEEN-BY: 310/31 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 423/81 640/305 1138       SEEN-BY: 640/1321 1384 3634/12       PATH: 640/1138 1384 221/1 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
