AI> Is your BBSs netmail base type supported? It would need to be
AI> either a JAM or Squish type.

that's not a restriction... HMB areas are supported, too...

AI> If so do you have a netmail base setup in the
AI> areas that FE can import the mail into?

that may be part of the problem... or...

AI> If you run FEUTIL IMPORT from the command line you may see a
AI> clue on the screen as to why. If those netmail messages have
AI> already been read they may not get imported too.

he may have it set to not import netmail addressed to the sysop... my system is
set this way... i have to read my netmail from frontdoor but my users all get
theirs on the bbs... i'd kinda like to have mine available via either or but RA
doesn't do MSG areas and i'm not going to copy them and have them in both...
