- How to test FdMsg Version 2.00 and higher
-
- Hi FdMsg user:
-
- To test the echomail part of Fdmsg the following setup will send a
- echomail message to me in a area called FDMSG_BETA
-
- 1. You must make a Echo area/tag named FDMSG_BETA
- 2. Have 1:147/48 as the uplink
- 3. Also add the address that has your Zone:Net/9999 but have it
- set so that it only receives NOT SEND echos. --See Doc--.
- 4. No other connections unless your tosser requires you to have your
- address as a connection.
-
- In this ZIP I have a file called FDMSGBTS.CFG:
- This is the configuration file you should use for testing.
- You will need to make some changes to it. These can be done manually
- or you can use the new program FdCfg.
- 1. The Address line needs to be changed to your address.
- 2. The From line needs your Zone:Net with a node of 9999 (See Docs)
- 3. NameFrom line change to your name.
- 4. Text line make sure you have the correct path to FDBETA.DOC
- 4. Change the Origin line to whatever you like.
-
- This configuration will cause a test message to be sent to me each Sat
- morning and since the telephone rates are cheaper then that should help.
- When you connect with my system you will get a copy of all the test
- messages fron the other beta sites. Of course that is if they have sent
- them in when you call. Otherwise you will get them the next time you send
- a test message.
-
- If you have problems/questions/request then place them in the FDMSG_BETA
- echo and then all will see it and my answers will be seen by all.
-
- You will also find a file called FDECHO.DOC.
- This file is the Text message that will be sent each week. Notice
- the parameters (keywords within %). This is a feature and will
- fill in the required information when sent. This will be used more
- with NetMail, I think.
-
- The above configuation file and text file are a idea on what you can
- use to test with. You can use any configuration file layout you like.
- JUST remember to use echo FDMSG_BETA so all can see the testing.
-
- Again let me thank you for help in this testing. It really makes a
- difference when it comes to putting out good software.
-
- Any questions either place them in the echo area FDMSG_BETA, send me
- NetMail, or call voice 405-333-2252.
-
- See ya
- Bob...
