Hello mastermind,

 ma> I was just starting to setup my sync build with fsx and noticed the
 ma> fsxqwk.zip file inside the standard fsxinfo.zip file.

 ma> Just a quickee - Are there benefits or drawbacks from using QWK? With
 ma> synchro, it seems super easy to use QWK and the software kinda likes
 ma> it - but I know with fsxNet & Mystic I did it the normal way.

You can do it either way with Synchronet and I suppose Mystic too.

With QWK you get all the new messages whenever you poll the hub. With FTN you 
get messages from the hub (probably) whenever new messages get there. Also you 
can connect the file areas with an FTN link.

 ma> Which way should I setup fsxNet with a synchro BBS?

I'd probably use FTN so I can link to the file areas also but either way will 
work.

 Ttyl :-),
