I will keep looking              I did some basic searching too and its sad that some of these things are       getting lost.              I'm surprised no one else has jumped in to tell us of them too since I know       others have used them in the past.               JE> large amount of message bases and networks, its too much to look though        JE> the log for potential problems. Maybe its the reports I am used to in my        JE> job that brings this to mind. With all the telemetry that gets recorded        JE> for our fleet of trucks, I simply can't just go look for issues. I need        JE> those reports to point me to potential issues so I know where to look.               For most situations you're not going to need to go through logs but in that       situation you described with the old messages yeah that would slip through the       cracks. We need to figure out a way to identify that scenario easier.              When you go into Echomail nodes you can see the number of days nodes have been       inactive, if there is a "streak" of crash errors when attempting to send mail       (and how many), the last time data was successfully sent, the last time data       was successfully received, the inbound flow byte size and file count, the       outbound flow byte size and file count...              You can see this all reported in real time without needing to generate       anything. I think the issue is that just like you'd be required to generate       and review a report, you have to go in and look. So maybe being able to set       parameters that allow you to be notified would be a good first step.               JE> If you don't mind, I do have some ideas that would fit right in with        JE> built in notifications.               Absolutely I would love to hear it!       --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/05/11 (Windows/32)        * Origin: Sector 7 | Mystic WHQ (1:129/215)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 30/0 80/1 90/1 105/81 120/340 457 616 123/10 131 129/215       SEEN-BY: 129/305 154/10 30 40 50 700 203/0 218/700 220/80 90 221/6       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 201 702 229/101 310 424 426 452 550 664 700       SEEN-BY: 229/981 1016 1017 240/1120 5832 249/206 307 317 400 261/38       SEEN-BY: 280/464 282/1038 292/854 301/0 1 101 113 317/3 322/757 341/66       SEEN-BY: 342/200 633/280 712/848 770/1 3634/12 5020/1042 5058/104       PATH: 129/215 154/10 301/1 229/426           |
