Using the -d switch will not delete netmail on incoming. The batch file I use
runs sbbsecho twice, once for incoming and once for any posted messages made to
the board for outbound.  The 2nd instance doesn't use the -d switch but I did
notice it will not delete the netmail from the incoming... so I added a del
../secure/*.msg.

That's perfect.

Mmmm... well, DM gave you a resolve for that issue.  If you need either the ZIP
or UNZIP, as they work perfectly here, let me know.
