This one made it, you're correct if it's flagged only as Local then it's not left the building, is the base set to Echomail or Netmail, and had the
mailout process run OK?

I'm just wondering why there wasn't the bot response to the message.

It didnt meet the conditions.

The bot will only repond when messages are to "All" (case does matter), AND when the subject is only "test" (case does not matter).

I could change the "to" to be case insensitive I guess...

Ah. I really did mentally skip over the fact that it was to "TEST".

Hello alterego,

Looking again with Golded, it does have a tear and origin line. Looking at that message on BBBS it doesn't. The two blank kludge lines are an error of some sort and causes BBBS to drop the tear and origin line from the message.

Just seen the same message in SCInet - so I think I can conclude the issue is with the sender... Perhaps he was doing some out of BBS importing of some sort.

Thank you for posting this! As I mentioned to Al...1 line of very simple code was forgotten to kick messages out. I should have D'Oh tatooed across my forehead. ;)

On the other hand...I just got an offer letter for another job at work where
I don't have to deal with customers. Will be stocking overnight. 19 cent raise...not dealing with nasty people...what more do you need? Am excited
about this...especially since I've been waiting for several weeks for this news.

Something I was not expecting was when Mystic was told to kick out messages...it kicked out all previous messages with this new build...so that's why. I do apologize for all unintended consequences...since the software

I may not have a solution but I may be able to help if it's a connection problem of some sort.

Feel free to connect to any file areas you like, there are many more than just those OS/2 files. Netmail Filemgr or Filefix for help or to connect/disconnect any areas. There too.. if you have problems let me know and I'm sure we can get

If you want a different Doom experience, get the Cyberdreams WAD for Doom. Each of its levels is a puzzle in which you are expected to defeat many Cyberdemons with a handgun and a bullet. Totally worth a try.

No HEXEN action. Uses the doom engine from memory. I liked the idea behind this one, but found it a little to heavy on the logic puzzle... I was happy relaxing shooting monsters, rather than having to sit and think quite as hard as Hexen was requiring.

I haven't kept up much with the DOOMs recently but John Romero has released a new WAD for DOOM called Sigil. There is a link on his website at rome.ro.

For quake there are so many I could recommend. For a basic old school quake map
have a look at The Underkeep. You can grab it or just about any quake maps and mods at https://www.quaddicted.com. Here's a link for The Underkeep.

https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/jp1m2.html

Here's a link for Arcane Dimentions. This is a large game changing mod with new
episodes and maps. Grab the patch also from this page.

https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/ad_v1_70final.html

One of my favorites is Dimention of the past by J.F Gustaffson. This is a recent pack (2016) from an old time quake mapper.

https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/dopa.html

There are many more at quadicted. One more brand new pack, the first of what will be a four episode pack called Dwell. Be sure to get the upgraded version in the description rather than the main download. I haven't looked this one all
over yet but it looks good.

https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/dwellv1.html

I have more but that will keep you busy for a while I'm sure.. :)

the new job...so may have to play some of the new 360 games I've picked (Deadpool/Injustice/Red Dead Redemption). ;)

Sounds like fun. I'm still playing old games like quake. There are more new maps coming out for quake than I can keep up with.

Funny you should mention this...have over 200 games I've bought over at GOG.com. Usually...they have a sale...so I usually pay less than $5.00 US for about anything. On the other hand...did cough up the funds for some of the
old favorites like Diablo/Warcraft I/II & such.

That reminds me...I have a Pi 3B+ setup with Dosbian I haven't had time to
play with...so I guess will spend a day to get stuff setup to play some of my favorites like Doom/Quake/Castle Wolfenstein/Blake Stone/Leisure Suite Larry
& such.

Around here (if you have watched The IT Crowd)...Space Star Ordering stars are wishes which have come true. I want an Astin Martin DB10...

Never heard of it, and that lot means nothing to me :)

Introduced an old friend of mine today via Skype. Just as long as no flash photos are taken...the Internet will be fine once we return to Big Ben once
we let Stephen Hawking demagnitize it again for even better reception. Just need to remember to call the Elders of the Internet to make sure someone
leaves the door open for me. ;)

Yep, those all work well in linux. I'm not sure about leisure suit Larry, I don't have that one. Quake works well, I use Quakespasm and it seems to run any
mod or map well. I sometimes have to lower case filenames that are upper or mixed case so they work on linux.

I don't have a Pi so I've never tried that but I suspect those games could be made to work on a Pi.

I keep both DOOMs and Quake I/II around.

No HEXEN action. Uses the doom engine from memory. I liked the idea behind

this one, but found it a little to heavy on the

logic puzzle... I was happy relaxing shooting monsters, rather than having

to sit and think quite as hard as Hexen was

requiring.

Hey, HEXEN rocks.

"You have been playing this game for too long. It is time to remove you from the board!"

I still have to beat the expansion.

Also, if you need some middle ground between shooting things up and thinking, try Strife. Just beware it is a story oriented
game with plot branches which you can make unwinnable by siding with the wrong people and that sort of thing, so save often.
Other than that it is nice because it has some stealth and puzzle elements, but
it is a shooter game at heart.

Also, Heretic and the expansion where awesome. Its only real drawback is the weapons don't feel very distinct. It has some
inventory management which makes the game a bit more strategic ("should I use this powerup now od save it for later?"). I think
Heretic's inventory and powerups were what made the game unique.

Hey, HEXEN rocks.

It was a good change of pace after DOOMs and a few other hack n slash FPS. I liked it, just got bogged down in the finished that bit, something has opened on some other level thing... and going back to figure out what it was...I always tended to use the Cleric... after a bit I knew where to get all the bits for the wraithverge.

I used to take the Wizzard. The Arc of Death rocked very hard. The base wand was great too, since you could kill many enemies without risk and without spending ammo.

If you want a different Doom experience, get the Cyberdreams WAD for
Doom. Each of its levels is a puzzle in which you are expected to
defeat many Cyberdemons with a handgun and a bullet. Totally worth a
try.

Noted. Thanks for the pointer!

the next week or more now, thanks!

*** Quoting Gary Ailes from a message to All ***

Can a JAM message base be shared between softwares? How will they
detect messages to send entered in the other system?

Just my experiment using the same message base between ProBoard and Mystic.

I tried doing this with Mystic & Telegard. Both boards were able to see the messgaes in the bases, but if I posted a message on Telegard it would mark
all messages as unread in Mystic.

I stopped testing there, I'm not sure what would happen if both boards tried accessing the same base at the same time.

Well, thanks, looks like it works. The proboard posted message was picked up and tossed by mystic out to the network! Love it when things work.
