Wilfred,

11 Nov 13 10:23, you wrote to me:

 WV> My crash.bat contains the following line:

 WV> c:\fd\Fmail\FMailW32.exe pack * /C

I am still having some questions about this. In my batch-file that's
executed after I write netmail, I use the above command. When I write a
normal (routed) netmail and pack it like that, it creates a .flo file for
the destination instead of following the packing rules in fsetup. Is it
supposed to do that?

Also, Michiel let me know that I delivered a normal netmail directly to him
this way, but that it wasn't processed because it was packed and his system
doesn't process these packed mails (without password) for security reasons.
In fmail I saw in the node manager that there's a switch to specify if
netmail should be packed or not. But I didn't see a general switch for
nodes not in the node manager. This means that when I send a netmail to
anyone in the nodelist (and who is not in my node manager in fmail), that
netmail will be packed, and will not be processed by these secure systems.
Am I right?




Groetjes,
Tom
