 TK>>> Nice! I just made my CentOS 7.6 smapinntpd.spec to compile it and am

 TK> +1

Yeah. I can RPM package just about everything. For .deb, I'm going to restrict
myself to using "fpm" or, Freaking Package Manager, to make those, because
they're such a PITA trying to do it their native way.

 ER> One thing I noted was that somewhere it said not to use hpt
pack, which I understand that's only packing netmail, per hpt docs.

 TK> Yes, there's nothing wrong with packing jamnntpd netmail. :)

Hmmm, well, why would the jamnntpd/smapinntpd say that about hpt pack then,
which only does pack netmail? heh. Granted my netmail is JAM (and Netmail2 is
fido *.msg)..

I'd be curious more about that. I specifically originally chose to have JAM
message bases because I wanted the ability to use JamNNTPd specifically, but
now that I know of and have SmapiNNTPD, I could go through the idea of changing
that, rescanning the messages to re-populate, to switch between them.

If you could recall specifics on that that could be quite helpful for me,
since.. Well, SmapiNNTPD supports Squish and JAM and *.msg because of SMAPI. :)
