BR> Got a problem getting echomail out from my BBS...

 BR> If I do a local logon to my BBS and enter a message in 
 BR> an echo, log off and run SQUISH OUT, the message does 
 BR> not get sent.  According to SQUISH.LOG, you'd think 
 BR> Squish isn't even seeing it.

 BR> If I enter an echomail message in MSGEd, Squish has no problem with it.

 BR> So, it seems I have a problem getting Max to 
 BR> communicate with Squish.  I've quadruple-checked (at 
 BR> the very least) the pathnames and tags in both 
 BR> MSGAREA.CTL and SQUISH.CFG.

 BR> Any ideas?  Anyone?

Don't know, but here's my .cmd file for my local login which works fine.
Rem node3.cmd for os/2.
e:
cd\max
mode con1 co80,50
maxp -k -n3 -l "-jwes newell"
:eloop
if errorlevel 255 goto end
if errorlevel 65 goto outside
if errorlevel 12 goto export
if errorlevel 11 goto mash
if errorlevel 10 goto end
if errorlevel 5 goto acall
goto end
:outside
command /c
rem call errorlvl.bat
maximus -r -n3
goto eloop
:export
squishp out squash -fe:\max\echotoss.log -ne:\local.log
scanbldp local matrix {at}e:\max\echotoss.log
mrp all
goto end
:mash
squishp squash -ne:\local.log
scanbldp local matrix
mrp all
goto end
:acall
scanbldp local
:end
rem after call utilities
if exist do_fb.cmd call do_fb.cmd
del do_fb.cmd
echo Local Node Down
---------------------------------------
And my old dos file;
REM node3.bat for dos
e:
cd\max
max -k -n3 -l "-jwes newell"
:eloop
if errorlevel 255 goto end
if errorlevel 65 goto outside
if errorlevel 12 goto export
if errorlevel 11 goto mash
if errorlevel 10 goto end
if errorlevel 5 goto acall
goto end
:outside
command /c
rem call errorlvl.bat
maximus -r -n3
goto eloop
:export
squish out squash -fe:\max\echotoss.log
scanbld user.bbs area.dat local matrix {at}e:\max\echotoss.log
mr area.dat
goto end
:mash
squish squash 
scanbld user.bbs area.dat local matrix
mr area.dat
goto end
:acall
scanbld user.bbs area.dat local
:end
rem after call utilities
if exist do_fb.bat call do_fb.bat
del do_fb.bat
