    From Rick Smith@1:340/202 to All on Sat Mar 21 15:18:03 2020
    Greetings,

    I have solved most of my setup woes with one glaring exception and its more
    of a housekeeping thing I think. But I have tried to figure it out for a
    month or so and have tried several different options and asked other sysops privately to no avail so I let you all have a stab at it. The problem is
    when files get tossed they all end up in C:\mystic\files when in my
    mailin.ini each network is supposed to have its own base directory (which it does) fido, fsx, agora etc. they never end up there however. Also can you
    cut and paste into these message groups this was hard to get all this info on here?

    bad_dir=c:\mystic\files\fsx\badfile
    ; Toss TIC from unsecure directory in addition to inbound?

    unsecure_dir = false

    ; File description to use when no DIZ, long description or description an be
    ; found from the file or .TIC file.

    no_desc=No Description

    ; Name of the uploader to use when adding TIC files into the local file bases

    uploader=Abacus BBS

    ; Check size and CRC values supplied in TIC file (if found) against the actual
    ; file. If the value does not match, then skip tossing the file (movin
    it
    ; to the bad directory if enabled)

    check_size = true

    ; If this is true, then files that are FROM an unknown node will stillb

    The reason they're ending up in \files is because that is what your dir_prefix is set to, and it doesn't allow for dir_prefix to be redefined by source address as it does for other settings.

    But I agree that it SHOULD allow that, so in the next build what you have here will work! :)

    If there is one thing I have been surprised about over my time working on Mystic its how partial people are to how they want their directories! ;)

    Happy to add it in! I'll update the builds in the prealpha section sometime today for you, if you want to upgrade to it.

    I will announce new alphas here. But this is just a pre-release so I do not announce them. If you download the version in the prealpha folder it should have the file area change.
