- Here's some help about how you can use AreaFix to change your echomail areas.
-
- You just have to write a message to 'AreaFix' and tell AreaFix what he has to
- do for you.
-
-
- Example:
-
- Msg : 13 of 23 Uns Pvt Loc K/s
- From : Tobias Burchhardt 2:2448/400 Wed 30 Jul 95 23:59
- To : AreaFix 2:2448/4000
- Subj : PASSWORD <- Your password
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
- RA_UTIL <- Add (link) area
- +DFUE.GER <- same
- -SYSOPS.024 <- Remove (unlink) area
- U.ENG.* <- Add all areas beginning with U.ENG.
- -F.???.COMP.* <- Remove all areas that match this pattern
- %RESCAN <- Rescan following area(s) and add if area(s)
- is/are not linked yet
- FASTECHO.GER
- %DAYS 7 <- Rescan only messages not older than 7 days
- SHAREWRE
- %MSGS 100 <- Rescan at most 100 messages each area
- FE_HELP
- FDECHO, R <- Alternative way to rescan a single area
- FDECHO.GER, R=300 <- Rescan up to 300 messages of that area
- * <- Add all areas available for you
- -* <- Remove all linked areas
- %FROM 2:2448/48 <- Perform changes as if they were made by
- the specified node (remote maintenance)
- This must be given at the FIRST line in
- a request message !
- %QUERY <- Ask for your active areas
- %INFO <- Ask for general information
- %LIST <- List available areas
- %UNLINKED <- List available areas to which
- you are currently not linked
- %AVAIL <- List all areas that are available at
- this system's uplinks
- %PAUSE <- If you go to holiday you can
- stop receiving echomail for that
- time without manually removing each
- area with '-AREANAME'.
- %RESUME <- Switch echomail receiving ON again.
- %NOTE <- Leave comment to sysop (anything written
- below is ignored!)
- %COMPRESS LHA <- Change your packer eg. to LHA
- %COMPRESS ? <- Send a list of available packers
- %PWD password <- Change your AreaFix password
- %PKTPWD password <- Change your ARCmail password
- %HELP <- AreaFix will send you this help.
-
- Instead of %QUERY, %INFO, %LIST, %UNLINKED, %AVAIL and %RESCAN, you can also
- specify '-Q', '-I' , '-L', '-U', '-A' and '-R' as flags after the password.
-
- Example: password -Q -L -A
