If you have some copy of A36 that has mis and mis2 then you don't have a real
copy of A36. Not sure if you knew that beforehand or not, but the legit copy
of A36 will only have the server and nothing else. No mis2, no old looking
server. Just mis (the server formally known as mis2).
You can download the A36 release at mysticbbs.com/downloads if you need it.

Are you able to install another copy in a separate directory so you can do some
testing with the new version? I'm not sure how your server works, but if its
by space then a fresh Mystic only takes 3 megabytes. You could just use
different ports if you wanted to run any of the servers.
If you can do a side install we could use the latest in-progress A37 from
www.mysticbbs.com/downloads/prealpha, and we can work with that until we
resolve things with DOSEMU, etc.

Yes the main hub is Windows but the mailer's logic and code doesn't change
between operating system versions. The Linux version is probably more heavily
used than the Windows version in general.
