Hi Howard,

HS>  Since updating the system Binkley seems to be missing
HS> mail events. I run EleBBS and am usin Binkley v2.50.

One thing you have to watch with the Binkley Event fie, is that if you update
it while Bink is active, then Bink may have trouble sorting out changes in the
event schedule. If I ever need to change the Event file, I exit Binkley, make
the changes, then restart Binkley so that the timestamping on ALL the relevant
Binkley files are in the correct sequence and when Binkley re-starts it
recognises the changes and re-builds the .SCD (Schedule) and .DAY (daily
events) files from scratch.

Mind you, since I started using CRON to schedule background tasks I haven't had
a need to change the Binkely .EVT file in 3+ years now.....;-)

Cheers.............pk.
