I still use the cronfile I set up years ago.. it works well for me:

*/10 * * * *  /home/bbbs/mailin.sh
*/16 * * * *  /home/bbbs/mailout.sh

mailin.sh:
#!/bin/sh
cd /home/bbbs
./bbbs bogus w > /dev/null 2>&1
./bbbs btick > /dev/null 2>&1
exit


mailout.sh:
#!/bin/sh
cd /home/bbbs
./bbbs bogus r > /dev/null 2>&1
exit

so I run mailin.sh every 10 min. and mailout.sh every 16 min.

Works for me :)

Take care,
Janis
