• Netmail

    From Alpha@21:4/158 to All on Thursday, February 06, 2020 15:41:50
    Mystic Sysop question... How do you organize your Netmail areas if you have multiple (4-5) networks? E.g. A "Netmail (NETWORK)" message area in every network message base? A Netmail Message Group that pulls each area into a consolidated group? Or, a single NETMAIL area/file for all, so they are
    in a single location?

    Probably preference-based, but just curious.

    they are in a single location?

    I have a single Netmail area. It will auto detect the destination address and set the message to the appropriate server defined in your route.

    Another thing I did was HIDE the netmail area from the message group list. I have a dedicated email/netmail menu that will set your group/base to the Netmail g/b when you check for messages or post a netmail. I lump
    email/netmail as a seperate thing from echomail.

    Just my preference.

    Correct. I have a unique netmail base per net. It just keeps things a bit cleaner IMO.

    That's a good idea!

    I include each netmail base in my group for each network AND also have a separate group that includes all netmail bases. When anyone goes to send a netmail message I chain commands. First I have them join the netmail group, then Change area and finally post the netmail.

    I tried that initially, but had issues. Switched to a single netmail base and no problems.

    Hello All,

    I've just been looking over my Mystic BBS after a time. Can somebody send me a netmail? I wondering if anything has changed in the way it displays the from address and how it addresses a reply.

    I'm also wondering about the web server. I have it enabled currently but I just

















































































































    get an error 404, page not found error although I do have an index.html in the webroot directory. Does anyone have that working?

    Al,
    I am a little confused. When I tried to send you a netmail and did a look
    up of Equinox BBS, nothing showed up in the node list by that name. So I did
    a search by node number 21:4/106 and the below information showed up. As you notice your message post tag line is showing something completely different.

    In short, your tag is showing Equinox BBS at 21:4/106 , but in the node
    browser no such BBS name exists.

    Yep, that is my node. I am looking for a netmail to 21:4/106.2, that's the address of my Mystic BBS that I want to check on. It'll travel the net to my node (up above there) and then be directed from there to 21:4/106.2 so I'll be able to read it on my Mystic BBS. In a nutshell, my node feeds my point netmail, echomail and files, it's a different setup than my main node.

    I found it. It's bouncing back and forth between 21:4/106 and 21:4/106.2. It's up to 13K of via lines now. ;)

    Still nothing here. I deleted one that never got tossed into the message base, it just kept going back and forth between 4/106 and 4/106.2. Looking at Mystic's log, Mystic seemed to think the message was to 1/186 and so sent it back to 4/104 and it would get sent back to 4/106.2 again.

    I'll try to figure out what's up there.

    I do send netmail back and forth between the two, areafix and filefix without issue so I'm not sure what going on.

    Hi everyone, sorry for my petulant question but I still have the same problem: how to configure netmail areas? Can I configure two netmail
    areas one for each network?

    If you want a netmail base per net create them and add the AKA to use to the "Net Address" in the msg areas config.

    If you leave the "Net Address" to the default (0:0/0) the netmail area will work for all you AKA's and nets.

    Thanks for the help but my problem is different; I read messages from golded and the netmails I write there for some reason do not arrive even though they are sent. I'm afraid the problem is in the configuration of the golded area generated by mystic.
