Hi All.


I am in the process of changing bossnodes.  The old bossnode, 396/1, uses 
"fakenet addressing"; the new bossnode, 396/45, does not.

Not knowing if anyone is still watching here, I'll not post the .CFGs yet.

I am running Binkleyterm, QMail, and MsgEd.

During this interim stage, I have made two subdirectories, 39614 and 39645, 
each of which contain ALL the .CFGs and other stuff.  Whichever I am going to 
call, I simply copy that entire sub-directory over the "..", which overwrites 
whatever was there previously.

The contents of the 39614 directory are unchanged from what has been working 
great for some ~4 years.  

The contents of the 39645 directory have all the "fakenet addressing" removed, 
and the new address and password(s) inserted.

Here's what is happening.  Inbound from 396/45 seems OK (after some password 
problems).  Outbound is not so good!  Everything is fine 2-way with the old 
boss!

I have Netmail and one echo linked to 396/45.  I post a Netmail, either a reply 
or a new message, and I post an echomail.  Exit MsgEd, and I have a Msged.log 
file, but it only lists the echomail echo, NO netmail.  Is this normal   ?????

Next, run QM Scan Pack, no outbound is generated, but QM _does_ delete the 
Msged.log file, indicating MsgEd _did_ generate the errorlevel upon exit.

What would stop QMail from grabbing that echomail message and generating an 
outbound packet?

While awaiting any replies, I'll be working on a listing of all the .CFG files 
in a side-by-side edit so y'all can see exactly what's different on a line by 
line basis.


     Thanks, M.
