      MSGID: 1:229/426 027238EA       REPLY: 532.fido-mystic@1:153/757.2 244e92da       TZUTC: -0500       A> Does your log give any indication of what is happening when you are tossing       A> fido mail?              Here's a rundown of what I tried just now:              I posted a test message in "Fidonet: Asian Links"       I ran mutil (with import echomail=true and export echomail=true)       - mutil indicated that 1 echomail was exported       I ran fidopoll to poll my Fido hub       - fidopoll indicated that 1 message was sent and that a packet was received       I ran mutil again (same settings)       - mutil indicated 0 sent & 0 received              Then I reviewed fidopoll.log and found:       Receiving 00000001.MO0 (4,395 bytes)       Sending: 0000ffff.mo0 (938 bytes)       Session ended (1 sent, 1 rcvd, 0 skip)              Then I reviewed mutil.log and found:       (1st time I ran it right after posting in Fido: Asian Links -before polling)       Process: Importing EchoMail        Waiting for BUSY nodes       Results: 0 echo, 0 net, 0 dupes, 0 tossed in 0.03s       Process: Exporting EchoMail        Waiting for BUSY nodes        Scanning...        1 msgs from [Fidonet] Asian Links       Results: 1 echo, 0 net, 0 skipped in 0.21s       Shutdown Normal              ----- That "Waiting for BUSY nodes" part is suspicious! -----              Further into the log shows what happened when I ran mutil AFTER polling:       Process: Importing EchoMail        Waiting for BUSY nodes        Extracting 00000001.MO0        Importing 28085851.PKT (1:275/100 to 1:275/99)              Then I logged on to my hub's BBS (Shenk's Express) and found that my test        message that I posted in Fido: Asian Links did not post to the network.              Let me know what you make of this. I suspect there's something up with        "Waiting for BUSY nodes."              I was having a similar issue with Scinet about a week ago, and Jay recommended       I run ./mis poll to see if anything would go out, and that seemed to solve the       problem with Scinet. But I tried to do it here to solve the Fidonet issue but        no luck.              Thanks Al and thanks Jay!              --- Renegade vY2Ka2        * Origin: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?
