Hello mark.




 Marc> I have MakeNL/2 working quite well with one minor exception.
 Marc> It doesn't seem to send notifications on receipt of a Net
 Marc> segment.  I have 3 verbs set:

 > NOTIFY SELF
 > NOTIFY ERRORS
 > NOTIFY RECEIPT

 > What am I missing here?

 ml> is that the only thing you have set for them? i'm using the
 ml> following here in my region control file...

 ml>   netaddress 1:18/0
 ml>   submit     1:229/426 INTL NOKILLSENT
 ml>   notify     errors INTL CRASH NOKILLSENT
 ml>   notify     receipt INTL NOKILLSENT
 ml>   notify     self INTL NOKILLSENT
 ml>   messages   /sbbs/ftn/netmail

 ml> the NOKILLSENT attribute is due to a local patch so that my mailer
 ml> doesn't delete the segment file which is sent directly from my
 ml> makenl master directory... i forget if i offered the patch but i
 ml> think it did... i'm not sure if it has been applied to the main
 ml> source or not, though... i think it has since i don't find my patch
 ml> file and my script is not attempting to apply it after updating the
 ml> code...

 ml> i always use INTL to make sure that the proper 3D/4D address
 ml> information and control lines are used... i forget if makenl can do
 ml> 5D
 ml> (zone:net/node[.point]@domain) yet...

 ml> i also place the destination host's address on the net lines... 

 ml> eg:
 ml>   Net        116  wwwwwwww.txt  1:116/0
 ml>   Net        123  xxxxxxxx.txt  1:123/0
 ml>   Net        135  yyyyyyyy.txt  1:135/0
 ml>   Net        3634 zzzzzzzz.txt  1:3634/0

 ml> granted, makenl defaults to sending the notice to the /0 but i do
 ml> it this way anyway...

 ml> not sure if this will help you or not, though... i'm using
 ml> self-built linux version and haven't updated in a year or three...

I believe that this will solve the problem.  I saw mention of "flavor" in the
documentation but no example.  I'm sure that's what was meant.

Many thanks!


Best regards,
Marc
