- Revision A Highlights:
- ----------------------
-
- Welcome to Revision 'A' of VUUCP/2.
- I have fixed the following:
- Bounces from E-Mail
- E-Mail gateways bug fixed
- No more "hard coded" paths in the .EXE file
-
- I have added the following:
- Newsgroups Gateways fully functional
- VME.EXE add-on makes timed polling work for VUUCP
- VUU@CFG.EXE Program to set up paths
-
- YOU MUST RUN VUU2CFG BEFORE USING THIS VERSION.
- The VBBS Data path is the same as you have set in VCONFIG
- The VBBS Db path is the same as you have in VCONFIG
- The SPOOL path is the path to the directory where outgoing
- UUCP Mail is stored (usually x:\SPOOL\server)
-
- Thanks!
-
- Also, rename the VME.EXE in the VBBS 6.1 archive to:
- "REALVME.EXE" and then rename the "FAKEVME"
- program to "VME.EXE"
-
-
- Welcome SysOp! Thank you for choosing my VUUCP replacement for
- use on your BBS. This is fully functional replacement for Roland
- De Graaf's disfunctional VUUCP module.
-
- Installation in easy, just copy the VUUCP.EXE file from this .ZIP
- into your main VBBS Directory. Then, Unzip the included VSPLIT10.ZIP file
- into the same directory. Please note, I have nothing to do with the existance
- of the VSPLIT program, and am including the complete original distribution
- ZIP, unaltered, with no warranties. Set up an configure WAFFLE 1.65 files
- per the WAFFLE instructions (Specific examples are available upon request),
- and then configure network type 5 from VCONFIG. If you do not have a domain,
- .UUCP MUST be in the node entry of VCONFIG.
-
- Features of VUUCP/2:
-
- ALL Email is imported correctly, and entirely
- Messages and EMail are automagickally split into VBBS
- size chunks by the 3rd party VSPLIT utility, included.
- From: format as follows: From: Zapo@pil.UUCP (Zapo Zapper)
- Speed improvement over RDG's VUUCP.
-
- Things ot watch for:
- your VBBS data dir must by '/vbbs/data/'
- the USER and NEWS directories must be on the same volume as
- the main VBBS directory.
- E-Mail importation on large messages is a tad slow..
-
-
- To set up an 'Organization: ' line on outgoing articles:
- add a line to the data/net.5 file:
- Organ=Public Image Limited VBBS (510) 831-3634
-
- Hope that helps. Enjoy...

- Registration:
- Well, quite frankly, this program was a b*tch to write.
- I had to decode the data types used by RDG (wouldn't want a copyright
- violation thing to happen. Then it took quite a whilt to stablize the code.
-
- I don't think it's too much to ask for a couple of bucks for time I spent
- working on this program. At least you'll be getting your mail now.. :)
-
- I'm asking $15 US for registration. This is not much, in my eyes, seeing as
- how almost every VBBS SysOp has spent 50-100 dollars to register VBBS...
-
- Send Registration to:
- Scott Call
- 166 Lawnview Circle
- Danville, CA 94526
-
- I also encourage Registration of the WAFFLE system. Which I have no
- affiliation with...
