I would call something to trigger the FIDOOUT event.
http://wiki.synchro.net/config:semfiles - Semaphore files will force sbbs to
trigger certain timed events, you just have to "touch" the file and sbbs will
run the event.

for Fidoout you'd want to:

echo. > c:\sbbs\data\fidoout.now

or in linux

touch /sbbs/data/fidoout.now

That'd force fidoout torun when a user logs out. By default Fidoout runs
hourly on my board. I'm not sure if posting to an echo causes it to run as
well, but there's probably a setting for that.

Out of curiousity why do you want to wait to send fidonet stuff? these days
messages can get to their destinations pretty quick, a user might even get a
response to his message before he logs for the day.
