   Hi! Jame,   
      
   On Mon, 13 May 13, you wrote to me:

   (NB.  I am actually mis-using the facility.)

   Taking the advice from Mark's note, it may be possible to specify a generic   
   base filename instead.  E.g. either 'echomail' or 'netmail, and the extension   
   stipulates the messagebase type: .jam, .sq, .msg, for the types that the SMAPI   
   version supports.  Something like:   
      
     -echomail [path]\echomail   
     -netomail [path]\netmail   
      
   That way a system can also use the files for their originally-intended   
   purpose: a record of the messagebase files and the message numbers   
   newly-written.  Any external scheduler/processor can then determine the   
   particular action to be conducted on the new mails, depending on the base type.

   Sweet.

   Understood.  My best wishes follow you through that tumult.  :)   
      
   Cheers,
