   Yes I know that you running MBSE BBS on a test system and as I have knowing   
   fro the INN workers is the version of INN I have had it worked on (fidogate   
   worked fine with INN) not changed so uch as some small bugs in inn have been   
   corrected to work better with. I am getting a email list updates from the   
   innworkers lists system of all errors and bugs and when there is fixed thing   
   in inn.

   It look like it Fidogate there not like to do the inpacking and outpack   
   function of gating and just hang by gate the news on to the next step to run   
   like runtoss outpkt and runtoss outpkt/mail etc. runin runtoss runout etc. and   
   but send-fidogate have now problem.   
      
    JC>   And btw, which version of Fidogate are you running?   I had been    
    JC>running an   
    JC>interim development version of v4.4.11, but since there hasn't been any    
    JC>development for quite awhile I've decided to use v4.4.10 plus patches    
    JC>when/if I put it back online again.   
      
   I will thing it is v4.4.11 or .10

    JC>   Sorry, Gert, it's not clear to me where you're seeing the problem...    
      
    JC>"transport/export" is failing ?   
      
   It is either when fidogate is on to unpack mail and gate it from news to mail   
   packs as pkt files, or it is already when it trying to read the newsgroups and   
   it not come on to next command.   
      
    JC>   Also;  I understand from something you said elsewhere that you're    
    JC>using a   
    JC>new version of INN v2.x?  It does make a difference in the compile of    
    JC>Fidogate, IIRC, which version of INN it's being built to be used with.     
    JC>(I hadn't figured a way to just make that a configuration item instead    
    JC>of a compile item, in part because I'm not quite sure how it's used.)     
    JC>Perhaps something changed enough in the version of INN you're now    
    JC>running to make a difference to Fidogate?   
      
   Fidogat should could read the news group as the news database and directories   
   not is been changed or it base structure not have been changed since it was   
   worked fine.
