    That's what I'm getting now, I had it working before I changed my
    setup to use a XP VM under W10 so I'm thinking it has something to do with
    it.

    It reads the nodelist and very slowly but it doesn't find the node# entered,

    if I use PXtools I can search the nodelist just fine so thinking the
    nodelist
    isn't the problem.

    Well I did find fidomsg.zip file which has the source file. I looked at
    it and if I read it right it looks for drive and folder. But I am not a programmer so I will need to find someone to take a look at it to maybe
    only look for the path without the drive desginator.

    The \wc\pxdata\px.ini file stores the location of the nodelist so you
    shouldn't need to change source code.

    The \wc\pxdata\px.ini file stores the location of the nodelist so you shouldn't need to change source code.

    Agree, the solution to my problem was editing the px.ini to show w:
    instead of d: because the WC VM is mapped to drive W:

    So now I can enter the fido address or a name and it reads the nodelist
    pretty quick. Sending netmail is not possible.

    Hmm, this section of code could be modified to set the system path
    varibale to a value loaded from a config file so that you can change
    this without having to modify and recompile the code. I could make this
    mod for you and send you the WCX if you would like.

    Haven't decided to do this, but I'll let you know.

    I was wondering if you had a setup using Irex and pxwin and what is in
    your routing section in pxwin look like for netmail.

    Basically, I have all outbound netmail routed to my NC, which, if I can
    get a response to him about not being able to connect to him, I might
    have to see about switching to another NC.

    you don't need to change nets to change your routing... i feed your NC and there have been a few troubles recently but once notified, he was able to fix them fairly quickly...

    if you want to connect here for routed netmail and possibly other services, fill out my service.app and get it back to me...

    ftp://www.wpusa.dynip.com/main/NEWUPLDS/service.app

    it is just an ASCII text file... don't forget to rename it as needed and also send me a netmail that you've sent it, too... or use OOB email and send it to my wkitty42 gmail address with a note... if you use email, please prefix the subject with "[FIDO]" so it doesn't get lost ;)

    Yeah, fortunately, I have my NC's cell number and was able to identify
    the issue right away and after making the necessary change in Internet
    Rex, all is well with the world again :)

    Will you tell me what changes you needed to make? Was this Irex also
    passing on netmail from pxwin?

    The only change I needed to make was the address of my NC's binkd
    server. Internet Rex otherwise passes netmail just fine. Nothing was
    wrong with that part of the setup.
