BL> You want to erase them afterwards, though, in case you end up with
BL> funny files in the TXFILES directory. When I first modified Brenton's
BL> batch files, it kept putting 00000000.pkt into TX and then sending it
BL> along with the 00000000.mo0.
DM> I had it right, for a while. Then TPOINT tripped me up when TML
DM> was busy. It trashed my mo0 pkt, and sent the null pkt.

I beg your pardon.
It is not possible for TPOINT to trash your mo0 pkt file.

DM> Then I thought I had it sussed, but ended up sending today's mo0
DM> pkt, and yesterday's PKT.
DM> I've put it back to how it was - sending the mo0 pkt, but
DM> invoking sendmail again with a duplicate copy of my rep if I
DM> don't get through to TML first time around.
BL> Your way will work until you end up with an odd packet or mo0 file
BL> in the TX directory.
DM> Like when TML is busy.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
