CC lists is how you send a message to more than one person. These are
files of the type xxxx.CC and reside in the messages subdirectory
pointed to by PARMS.BB
The difference betweeb this and .DIS is that CC makes individual copies
of each message while .DIS distributes the same copy. New BIDS are
assigned each message unless the special word NONEW$ appears on the same
line as the call.
As a message arrives, the ACTION.BB file is checked. If needed, the
distribution list name is changed from the default name of the @BBS.
The a search is made of the message subdirectory for a file of format
xxx.CC. If one is found then a distribution list will be used.
Format of xxxx.CC file
call1a @ call1b
call2a @ call2b
etc
This is actually the routing code to be used for the message. The
CC processor does an actual CM command for each copy to be made using
each line as the "TO" data so anything goes. The copy can go to a .DIS
file too. Hierarchial routes are allowed.
The .CC file can also contain authorization lines.
OK call1 call2 call3 ...
If the originating station is in this list then the distribution proceeds.
NOT_OK call1 call2 call3...
If the originating station is NOT in this list then the distribution proceeds.
Multiple NOT_OK are permitted. The actual call1 call2 etc are patterns (see
WILDCARD.DOC)
Example:
NOT_OK N7XXX
N6JQJ @ AA4RE.CA.USA.NA
N6XXX @ W0RLI.CA.USA.NA
