• Netmail Exportet to a Point

    From GOM@21:1/177.5 to Alle on Fri Jan 27 16:54:47 2023
    Hi there,

    do i need to export Netmail to Node/Point in options ?

    Netmail is: 0:0/0
    But if i want to export it to a point (winpoint), do i need to change settings in netmail to export to node ?

    Hope you can understand my bad english :D

    Greetings

    Hi there,

    do i need to export Netmail to Node/Point in options ?

    Netmail is: 0:0/0

    Mine is also set this way. When someone enters a netmail mystic will use AKA maching to set the From: address based on the To: address.

    But if i want to export it to a point (winpoint), do i need to change settings in netmail to export to node ?

    You may want to set the routing to your link to 1:* 2:* 3:* 4:* for fido and 21:* for fsxNet.

    Mutil will always set mail for your point to it since it is in your setup. Mail for other nodes will follow your route setup.

    Hope you can understand my bad english :D

    I think I understand your question, and I hope I explained in an undertandable way. :)

    ? Route Info ? 21:* ?

    This should be blank for your linked nodes/points. Netmail for linked nodes and points will always go directly to them.

    You will want to add route info in your hubs setup so netmail for unknown (in your setup) nodes/points are sent to your hub/link to send on to those nodes.

    There should be no export to in your netmail area. Mutil will send the messages to the destination directly for your linked nodes, or send them to your hub to send to the destination.

    Maybe there is something to setup in cfg files..

    Access levels are high, only the sysop can access the netmail area. Maybe you want it that way?

    Thanks for your answer :) You know, im alsway new to this and try to understand how all works.

    So i removed the 21:* from Route Info in Point. Access Level down to registered users in Netmail.
    No Export to in Netmail to Point.

    If i write an netmail from point, it works without any problem. But if a netmail is arriving in bbs, and i poll from winpoint, it will not send to the point.
    AreaFix Mails will arrive in Netmail on Winpoint and i dont know why.

    In Sysop Menu, there are echo mailadresses.There is the adress of from the BBS 21:1/177, do i also need to insert the Point adress ?

    Allother things, like Echo Areas works really fine without a problem.

    No problem, and keep in mind I am explaining to you the way I have done things. In most cases there are other ways to do things so feel free to to get things done in a way that works for you.

    So i removed the 21:* from Route Info in Point. Access Level down to registered users in Netmail.

    This is true in most cases for linked nodes and points. There may be times when you want to do this, so go ahead and do it if your use case needs it.

    No Export to in Netmail to Point.

    That's right there are never any exports on your netmail base, that is for echomail. Your echomail areas need to be exported to your hub and any nodes you link with for echomail.

    If i write an netmail from point, it works without any problem. But if a netmail is arriving in bbs, and i poll from winpoint, it will not send
    to the point.

    Is there mail waiting on your node for the point to pick up?

    Has this mail been imported? When mail arrives at your node it must be imported by mutil. Mutil should send any netmail for your point to it along with echomail in areas it is connected to.

    If you write a netmail to your point from the BBS it needs to be exported by mutil. If you do that the export function should send your netmail to the point.In both cases the mail should be waiting for the point to poll, or sent to it if mail for the point is set to crash.

    In Sysop Menu, there are echo mailadresses.There is the adress of from
    the BBS 21:1/177, do i also need to insert the Point adress ?

    I am not clear what you mean here. Your BBS should be setup with it's own address. Your point should be setup with it's own address. A point is like a mini node, different from the BBS.

    Allother things, like Echo Areas works really fine without a problem.

    Sounds like there is a problem with your point getting mail?

    We'll have to look closer at that and figure out at what point the problem exists, and what we need to do to get past it. Are you getting a secure session with your point so mail and files flow as expected between your BBS and point?
