Hi all. I am fairly new to D'Bridge and need some assistance. I am running OS/2 Warp 4 with Maximus 3 and Fastecho and of course D'Bridge. I am looking for a way to get the messages from D'Bridge to Maximus. DB will put all the incoming messages into its own filesystem as in 
C:\DB\MESSAGES
I am a node off of FSX_NET so all the incoming mail goes to 
C:\DB\MESSAGES\FSX_FOOD
C:\DB\MESSAGES\FSX_RETRO
etc. I like the"automatic" message handling DB has but I have had to turn that off and use manual and have all the incoming packets got to DB\INBOUND and running Fastecho manually to toss the packets. What is the best way to get Db to toss the mail to Maximus and scan for new mail to send out? I have searched the documentation and do not see an example of DB tossing to a BBS. ( or I just don't understand it) How do the rest of you guys handle this? I like the built in Binkp and it works great picking up the mail from my hub. If I can't use the automatic mail handling process of DB I guess my next question is setting a batch file to run fatecho whenever Db reccieves mail. I have a mail.cmd file in my Db directory that I run to toss, scan , and pack when I am handling mail manually but will want to automate that using semaphore if possible. Thanks for any help/advice!
