The answer is simple. Mystic's mailer is a "Binkley Style Outbound". Those door
games were originally created to work with "FrontDoor Attach" mailers (by
creating a netmail *.MSG in order to point the mailer at the game packets.
This won't work with Mystic, and in my opinion, shouldn't have anything to do
with each other.
The better option, is in BRE/FE's BBS.CFG, the last line should be "NONE" for
mailer type, and then you create a "dummy" netmail folder and point your game's
interBBS configuration to that dummy netmail folder so it doesn't get sent to
your league coordinator. Then at the end of your game processing batch file,
simply delete the contents of that "dummy" netmail folder, as you don't need
those whatsoever.
Don't fret, you're definitely not the first person to send me .MSG files, and
probably won't be the last! :)
Also, I know that BRE/FE have a setting that you can put "BINKLEY" on that line
in BBS.CFG, but I have never gotten that to work correctly.. so I just don't
use it. Maybe it worked with the original BinkleyTerm, but it never worked for
me with any newer Binkley-Style mailers.
Regards,
Nick
