    I love using Mystic but have a soft spot in my heart for Renegade so I'm go to switch over to that as my BBS software. However, I would love to contin to use Mystic as my mail system for the nets I'm in. It looks like it will work great except for Netmail, as far as I can see. Renegade uses "private mail" for all netmail (no matter the net). Does anyone have any thoughts o how to handle this?

    Renegade uses a proprietary format for storing messages and uses a utility to manipulate the scanning/tossing of mail in *.MSG format. I do not believe Mystic supports *.MSG.

    Correct, Mystic doesn't toss in MSG format so if that is all ReneMail can handle then it probably wouldn't work without some extra layer of software.

    Correct. He replied in the DBridge echo and appears to have his Cowbell
    working properly.
