  • DBridge & ProBoard

    From Zazz@1:124/5014 to All on Sun Apr 7 15:33:38 2019
    I'm playing around with D'Bridge and ProBoard. ProBoard can have message
    bases as msg, squish, hudson and jam. Since I already had DB working saving
    as msg then my first echo mail area I created was Fido Test and I pointed in ProBoard to the path that Dbridge was saving messages for that echo.

    I login to Proboard. Go to that file area and walla messages are there. So
    I write one (several since the first) while in ProBoard and waited to see if dbrdige would see it as a new mail.

    I didn't see any traffic. So I went to dbridge, change to the fidotest area and saw the message I created with ProBoard. It was there but no kill/sent
    was there. Then while there in DBridge I edited my message and saved it. Of course that went out as DBridge saw the "new" message.

    So my questions or why when I write message in ProBoard it does not get sent until I tinker with it in DBridge.

    When a new message is entered into any *.MSG area, D'Bridge needs to know to rescan that area to pack anything outgoing.

    ESC-Utilities-Process Mail Manually, or create the file DBRIDGE.RSE after the BBS caller logs off or Proboard exits.

    Thanks! Will get this going then.
