While that's useful, I need this to be done right after an sbbsecho call so
that it doesn't run again and re-export the netmail in an endless loop. So, if
I, or another user sends netmail from within Synchronet, my plan is to tell
sbbsecho not to delete which it normally does do, but in doing so, if the
outbound *.msg files remain there, every time sbbsecho runs, it'll send it
again, and again and again, endlessly. It doesn't seem to care if it's marked
Unsent or not.
