No, you don't and that's partially my fault. Let's try a paradigm shift
here....I'm not trying to toss fidonet messages into a MySQL database. I'm just
replicating my JAM message bases with a MySQL database. My MySQL database never
sees the light of day. Everything that comes or goes from my node is processed
either by my BBS or by IREX. Is it perfect? No, but it's pretty f***cking
fantastic considering I've been working on it for about 10 days and other
people have been working on it for years and have nothing to show for it.
I agree with the 'lost in translation' thing. I find most of your posts pretty
irritating, but I don't think that's your fault - I just don't think I can
relate to you. Whatever the reason, I think this subject has lived its
usefulness so if we could just let this thread die, that would be marvy.
As for the quoting - yeah, there's a few things on my to do list. Many more
pressing than quoting, but it's there.
