> WARNING: DBUTIL CHANGE commands should be used with caution and only by
> experienced D'Bridge operators only. In every operation where an
> Echomail area is changed or deleted, the Echomail database file
> DBRIDGE.ADF is backed up as BACKUP.ADF incase you make a
> mistake.

> Very minor, almost trivial stuff:

> - Fix for a long-standing bug with "Unpack error" when only a Queue path
> is defined and not drive+path.

> - Adds a new DBUTIL CHANGE parameter missing for a long time... the
> ability to mass-change Echomail *.MSG directory paths. This new one
> is called FIDOMSG. For example:

> C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG C: FIDOMSG R:

> Will change every Echomail *.MSG area from C:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX to
> R:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX.

> You can also specify a "null" in the change-to condition field, if you
> wish to completely remove absolute drive references from your Echomail
> area database, ie:

> C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG C: FIDOMSG

> Will change every Echomail *.MSG area from C:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX to
> just \DB\MESSAGES\XXXX.

> And of course, it doesn't just have to be for drive-changing... it can
> be for matching other stuff too:

> C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG F: ALERTFLAG F

> Will change any Echomail *.MSG directory matching drive F to have
> the alert flag F.

> You could also delete areas on matching criteria...

> C:\DB> DBUTIL DELETE FIDOMSG R:

> Will nuke any Echomail *.MSG area matching drive R.

> - The addition of this new CHANGE parameters should eliminate the often
> convoluted job with text-editors when you need to make mass-changes to
> a very large D'Bridge configuration (a config with thousands of areas)

> - Very minor code improvements.
