    From Alan Ianson@1:153/757 to Michael Pierce on Mon Jun 21 19:22:59 2021
    Hello Michael,

    was wondering whats best to use for messagebase maintence ??
    hptutil is extremely outdated it seems

    hptutil/lnx 1.9.0-cur 2011-03-09

    so, what would you suggest?

    I've been using sqpack since I started use the husky tools. No issues.

    Ttyl :-),

    Sqpack always renumbers messages, cannot be used with smapinntpd. :(

    Hello Tommi,

    I've been using sqpack since I started use the husky tools. No
    issues.

    Yep, that's a problem for nntp servers. In the BBS/FTN world the messages are always renumbered in all the tossers I have ever used.

    BBBS is an exception to that.

    What do you use to maintain your bases that are used with smapinntpd?

    Is hptutil a workable tool for you?

    Fastecho and GEcho can pack and purge without renumbering.

    In linux I don't. :)

    Hptutil can pack and purge squish bases without renumbering, but I think it is a bit unstable.

    I thought about JAM, but procrastination is stronger. ;)
