   -> 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...   
      
   Thanks, I will check the documetnation for BGFax.   
      
   -> 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.   
      
   I am using a virtual modem (COM/IP and NetSerial) so I am hoping to do   
   it with as few interoperability layers as possible.   
      
   -> 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 ...   
      
   I'd prefer not to spend any money.   
      
   -> 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   
      
   Who is Andrea ?
