From Dane Beko@1:114/201 to All on Tue Nov 6 20:46:00 2007
I'm hoping that someone can help me here. I'm running PcBoard 15.23
with BlueWave v4.01 maildoor.
The problem is that BlueWave insists on adding an Origin: line to every
message that gets uploaded through it. I carry three networks (all
using FTSC but only one is FidoNet). So by the BlueWave door adding the
same origin (1:114/201) to every message is not good. By trial and
error, I discovered that the BlueWave door is reading the ORIGINS.DAT
file that PcBoard maintains. So I edited that file and added the
correct Origin: lines for the conference numbers (2-180 for one network, 181-250 for the second and so on).
But... BlueWave still appends 1:114/201 to each of those Origin: lines
so it's still hosed. I wiped the BWMAIL.PRM file (configuration) and
started over and left the 1:114/201 out of the BlueWave door's
configuration (BlueWave left "0:0/0" as the node number). Now BlueWave
appends that node number (0:0/0) to every Origin: line. <sigh>
To get around this, I changed the conference setting from 5 (FidoNet) to
4 (Usenet) which has stopped BlueWave from adding anything to the
uploaded messages. But.. Now that each conference is flagged as
"Usenet", the To: field is no longer valid.
Has anyone ran into this problem? If so, is there a fix? I'd like to
continue offering the BlueWave door as a QWK alternative but not lik
this.
