• Mystic BBS Message Base specs

    From Beery@21:4/109 to g00r00 on Tuesday, February 13, 2018 08:44:14
    Are there file specifications out there for the Mystic BBS message base?

    I have a message base containing approximately 80,000 messages from a YahooGroup I would like to put online (local) for historical purposes. The messages were downloaded from PG Offline.

    I was able to do some exporting and have them in a Pipe delimited Excel spreadsheet.

    The fields I would need are date, name, subject, and message content. The "To:" field would be to ALL.

    I think the message base is approximately 150 mb's in size.

    Anyways, if I had the specs, I could write a program to put it into Mystic's message base format.

    Thanks for any help.

    Mystic uses the JAM messagebase format. Should be able to find specs online.
