Hello,
I put this in the general group but i figure that i would post it here as well. It seems i got everything working. I would like to thank Bucko for your help and finding my stupid mistake. I would like to thank Deon for his help with the Netmail config. I would like to thank Meatlotion for his advice and having his BBS so i can test to get everything working. :) I would like to generally thank everyone else also for thier advice in getting me to this point!!!! :)

Awesome, you are working...

This old tech is kinda confusing, which keeps us old dogs on our toes..

It really is made up of many small ropes all tied together with knots - and when they are all tied, it works!

Synchronet is awesome software, once you know it, but getting to know it can be


















































































































































































































































































































































a challenge.

Deon,
You are correct. I have heard that SynchroNet is a bit tougher to configure these networks than Mystic. I dont know Mystic to have an opinion. It


















































































































































































































































































































































seems that everything is working now. I did not even realize that FSXNet Netmail was not working. As soon as the 21:ALL was configured, it worked!!! I am very happy and thankful that it is working.
I know that the old mail will not send. Can i just delete the *.out files in the Fido/outbound directories? I dont want to break something. :) My next question is about polling. What is the difference between normal and crash?
Now that i am on DoveNet, FidoNet, FSXNet, and TQWNet, is there any other networks that is worth joining?

Hello,
I believe that my BBS was installed after that so i guess i missed that. lol :) I have been concentrating on Renegade software for the past couple of years but found it hard to get anything done and there was little or no help when i looked or asked. About 3 or 4 months ago, i tried to upgrade my Renegade








































































































































































































































































































































and it seems that it is stuck at that version since it breaks every time i upgrade no matter what i do. I then decided to make SynchroNet my main BBS. It is a decision i am overall happy with. The community is great and i have had a blast learning so much about this software. My BBS has come a long way in the past few months and i hope to keep up that pace. :)
I would go through that init-fidonet.js but I hear most of the networks are near dead. My BBS is on DoveNet, FidoNet, FSXNet, and TQWNet. I am working on AmigaNet and may go onto CommodoreNet. Is there any other networks that you recommend?
