      From: nospam.g00r00@f215.n129.z1.fidonet.org               JM> I'm setting up a new BBS and working on networked bases following Avon's        JM> videos. I managed to get test messages to go out to fsx_gen and receive        JM> replies without any problem. But for that base and all the other fsx        JM> bases, older messages aren't being pulled.              Hi Jonathan!              There could be any number of reasons for your troubles and I will do my best to       help get it sorted out.              I believe FSX has to use a temporary echomail address when you first join. Have       you received your permanent address?              If you have then it could also be that FSX does not automatically send older       messages and will only send messages that were posted after the time you have       joined. If you are receiving only new messages then you may need to do what is       called a "RESCAN" to have it send you historical messages.              I can help you figure that out if we think that is the correct next step!              ... No honey, I can't eat with the family. My computer gets lonely!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
