      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A47       MSGID: 1:342/201 aeae0f09       REPLY: 1:123/140 f9dd5a40       TZUTC: -0700       On 16 Feb 2021, MARCELINE JONES said the following...                MJ> How do I pass a BBS caller from an external mailer (eg.        MJ> Frontdoor / BinkleyTerm) to Wildcat v5.00 ?        MJ>               Ummmm, not frontdoor because it's a DOS based mailer... BUT I'm sure you an       with Windows based mailers...              I use to go from BGFax Win32 to WC5 back in the day... I bet some answers       could be in a BGFax doc because the transfer of a call from that program       should be no different. You just can't mix DOS with windows stuff...              An other thought... did you know Digital Man, of SynchroNET fame, wrote a       small app called SexPOTS, I think, and what it does is takes a call, itself,       or can take a hot call passed by a mailer... and send that call via telnet to       whatever address you want the call.              BTW, I know it's your money... but for a 100 bucks you can get the mailer and       echomail tosser companion for the BBS package. Santronics has a sale every       now and then and mark down the prices ...              Anyway, Look at the BGFax docs and see how they did it, I did it 25 years ago       so I know it can be done... Look at SexPOTS and Bink Win/32 as a possible       solution... Or spend the 100 bucks and get a complete package... If you were       going to spend the money call Andrea today and say that I heard that hobbyist       sysops are getting a deal on PXW is that true?? See what she says. We're all       just Whores in need of money              Good Luck              IB Joe       AKA Joe Schweier       SysOp of Joe's BBS       -=JoesBBS.com=-              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/01/16 (Raspberry Pi/32)        * Origin: JoesBBS.Com, Telnet:2323 SSH:2222 HTTP:80 (1:342/201)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 226/30 227/114 702 229/424       SEEN-BY: 229/426 550 664 1016 1017 240/5832 249/206 317 317/3 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 201 633/280       PATH: 342/201 200 229/426           |
