Documentation for Synchronet FidoNet Import/Export Utility v1.0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SBBSFIDO is a utiltiy to import NetMail and import/export EchoMail. The FidoNet
messages must be in the FidoNet stored message format specified in FTS-0001
(#.MSG). SBBSFIDO should be executed before your front-end mailer executes and
when your front-end receives a mail packet.
If the FidoNet semaphore file is specified in the SCFG Network options, it will
be created by Synchronet when a user has sent NetMail from the BBS. NetMail is
immediately exported from Synchronet, so SBBSFIDO does not need to do the
exporting.
NetMail will be exported to and exported from the directory specified in the
Networks configuration in SCFG. EchoMail will be imported to and exported from
the EchoMail path specified for that sub-board, or off the base echomail
directory specified in SCFG Network options in a subdirectory named after the
internal code of the sub-board.
Running SBBSFIDO
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SBBSFIDO requires either the DOS environment variable "SBBSNODE" to be set to
the full path of your NODE1 directory or it will accept the path of the NODE1
directory as an argument.
Example:
set sbbsnode=c:\sbbs\node1
sbbsfido
or
sbbsfido c:\sbbs\node1
If SBBSFIDO.EXE is not in your search path, you'll need to specify the
directory where SBBSFIDO.EXE exists on your command line.
Example:
c:\sbbs\exec\sbbsfido c:\sbbs\node1
SBBSFIDO, when run without any switches will import any new NetMail or EchoMail
and export any new EchoMail that has been posted on the BBS, will not delete
the imported FidoNet messages, and uses 4 dimensional (Zone:Net/Node.Point)
addresses.
The available switches are:
/n Do not import NetMail
/i Do not import EchoMail
/e Do not export EchoMail
/d Delete NetMail after it's imported
/x Delete EchoMail after it's imported
/p Ignore point in NetMail addresses
/z Ignore zone in NetMail addresses
/m Ignore message pointers (export all)
/u Update message pointers (export none)
/t Do not update message pointers
