Hi Roderick,



 RB>              I am runing M A X's BBS, i have been using it now for a month

 RB> polling a Amiga run BBS, I have had no troubles.



 RB> Then I tried to crashmail a Ezycom IBM bbs and it did not allow the file

 RB> names that M A X's BBS suport ?..



 RB> The file name that M A X's produced was  3.622.446.0.we0



Because Maxs is broken.



Any and all decent mailers would send a file named like the above, and
convert it to an IBM acceptable filename completely without any interaction
from the sysop, and all handled automatically.





 RB> This Breaks the 8.3 IBM limit, can someone help me on this problem ??





Real easy, just get something that actually works properly.
