      MSGID: 2:221/1.58 5044578b       CHRS: IBMPC 2       TZUTC: 0400       REPLY: 2:250/1.1 d6c173b3       Hello Martin,              On 25.03.19, you wrote to August Abolins:               MF> Found another one .....               MF> - 5D addresses MUST be used, otherwise, WinPoint transmits invalid        MF> AKAs to the remote system and the result of that is that the remote        MF> system will boot you off.              Well... it *is* a point program, so.. to me that implies that it *expects* to       operate as a 5D machine, and communicate with a Boss(es) only. Every message       it creates internally will be 5D.              ..and therefore, every Uplink and/or System has to be a 4D Boss(?)              However, as I write this, there *is* a Crashmail option at the top of this       internal editor window. So, could that imply that it can call/poll *any*       other open (no session password) system that would accept Crashmail? If so,       then maybe it can do what you would think, but for some reason, the config is       wrong somewhere?                     ../|ug              --- WinPoint Beta 5 (359.1)        * Origin: Reluctantly Revisiting Fidonet (2:221/1.58)       SEEN-BY: 15/2 123/1970 154/10 203/0 221/1 6 360 226/17 229/107 354       SEEN-BY: 229/426 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 280/464 5003 292/624       SEEN-BY: 292/854 310/31 317/3 322/757 342/200 393/68 396/45 423/120       SEEN-BY: 712/848 770/1 2452/250       PATH: 221/1 280/464 229/426           |
