Hello Robert,

There are several ways that that you can get "BBBS BOGUS" to process incoming
and/or outgoing mail. With messages written on the BBS I have BBBS exit with an
errorlevel which the batch file then calls BBBS BOGUS to scan the mail out.

For incoming mail/files from an uplink I have either the BinkP part of BBBS or
Radius mailer watch for the existence of mail or files and then call BBBS to
toss/process them. I guess you could even setup a script to watch for mail or
files or, setup a cron job event that the OS manages to process the mail/files.
