- Documentation for MASTER M_FILTER

-
- M_FILTER.EXE is a program automatically called by FBB as soon as there
- is a new letter or bulletin saved to disk but before added to DIRMES.SYS.
- M_FILTER is called by FBB if this program is found at the initialization.
- For further details read the FBB documentation regarding M_FILTER. When
- describing M_FILTER further on I refer only to my own software.
-
- The problem with FBB and M_FILTER together is that there can only be one
- filter active. This is the reason why I wrote my own version of M_FILTER.
- This version only transfers data between FBB and a number of different
- filter programs for mail-handling.
-
- M_FILTER.EXE must be placed in the BIN subdirectory. A separate configu-
- ration file have been added to keep track of all filterprograms as well as
- finding them on the harddisk. The name of this file is M_FILTER.CFG.
-
- M_FILTER.CFG must be placed together with INIT.SRV in the FBB root direc-
- tory.
-
- All the other filterprograms can be placed in a separate subdirectory thus
- keeping the root directory as "clean" as possible.
-
- \FBB\M_FILTER.CFG (an example):
-

- # directory of your choice.
