    Just wanted to check on changing my name and how it will affect the bbs.
    Time will change. This is Ruben Figueroa, aka Zazz.

    Changed it back. It affects my subscribes to WinServer and I don't want
    to mess with that.

    shouldn't those types of gating(?) accounts have their own special account instead of using a personal one?

    Should not affect it that much.

    Could always create an account with the new name.

    I am thinking he is referring to getting the winserver mailing list to his personal email account on his BBS. But, you are right. WINServer DOES use separate accounts for gating mailing lists in its message bases and there is even a special message base type for that very thing so wcMAIL and wcSMTP know where to deliver the messages. I have that setup here on my BBS for the weasel
    and postfix mailing lists.

    Ruben,

    Some software programs for Wilcat you may have registered may not work with a name change, you will only know when you test them.

    Could, but I'll delay any decision for a bit.

    Yes, I did think of that and changed it back to original. Thanks for
    feed back.
