   Sure thing. As long as your on a personal computer, and don't share it with   
   others:   
      
   getpkt:   
      
   #!/bin/bash   
      
   cd /home/user/mmail/down   
   wget --ftp-user= --ftp-password= ftp:///.qwk   
      
   cd /home/user/mmail   
      
   putpkt:   
      
   #!/bin/bash   
      
   cd /home/user/mmail/up   
      
   ftp -nv <   
   user     
   bin   
   put .rep   
   quit   
   EOF   
      
   rm .rep   
      
   cd /home/user/mmail   
      
   Technically you could use the FTP method for both transfers (using 'get'   
   instead of put), but I did the script with 'wget' first, and soon after   
   realized 'wput' was a thing at some point, but isn't maintained anymore and   
   isn't in my distro's repositories.   
      
   Change your paths to match your system, fill in your authentication   
   information, make them executable, and you're off to the races!   
      
   FYI, I don't remove the QWK packet, because I can do that in Multimail once   
   I'm done reading/replying. But I do remove the .REP packet after I send it,   
   otherwise the next time I run that script it'll send it again, probably   
   causing dupes. Unless there's some fancy numbering of .REP packets Multimail   
   does that I don't yet know about (I didn't read the docs, I just figured MM   
   out by mashing buttons, lol).   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
