what problems are you having with sbbsecho's areafix? it does use a slightly different syntax than traditional areafix...

It just 'stopped' working. It's been working flawlessly for over a year now, now I can't seem to send my Hub a areafix. At this point, I don't know if it's error on my part or my hub. I've been trying to contact him via netmail and email. I can send/recieve netmail fine. I'm now looking for another hub to feed my other BBS..

This doesn't really make any sense...

If you can "send/receive netmail fine", then the problem is
obviously at the hub's end. Sending your hub an areafix is
nothing more than sending a netmail. If the hub doesn't respond
properly to that netmail, it's a problem at the hub. If the hub
is running Synchronet, then yes, it could be a problem with the
hub's SBBSecho.

All of this is assuming you're sending a properly formatted
netmail to the hub's "areafix". Should be to "Areafix@1:xxx/xxx"
with your areafix password in the Subject line, and then the
desired areafix commands (like +FIDONEWS) in the body of the
netmail.

I'd recommend checking all of the above requirements for a
properly formatted Areafix netmail, and if it is indeed correct,
then send a regular netmail to the Hub Sysop asking why things are
not working. Good luck!

Get an AmigaNet link! Your AmigaNet link could also give you a fidonet feed! ;)

Kind of what got me to finding out about the netmail issues! I was planning on getting connected to AmigaNet. My Fido Hub, Nick Andre has been MIA, and ignoring my emails. He's also my FidoNet feed. so I've been trying to setup another Fido Feed. Which is a whole 'nother issue....

Uhh, I'm not MIA and not ignoring your emails. Perhaps if you Netmail me directly instead of complaining in Echomail, you might get somewhere.

I've been very politely asking you a few times to fix the tosser on your
system which is causing a circular path. Every time you said you have it
fixed or at least look into it, and thats the last I hear from you. I love how every single message I post in every area is looped back here by your tosser.

If you can't figure out Netmail or fix your broken tosser, you should not be joining an Othernet.

Right, it DOESN'T make sense. I don't understand it. It worked when I firrst set up my echomail areas like months (maybe over a year ago). But I haven't sent a netmail in awhile. I haven't had a need. I WAS talking to a fellow sysop via netmail, and they just stopped. I thought maybe he was just done talking!

I've double and triple checked my settings, and everything looks good on my end. I seem to be having the problem in two different networks, on two different BBS programs (Synchronet and Enigma). (the 2 networks are FidoNet and FSXNet). although I have been having issues with netmail in Enigma before. it is still a Alpha program, but Synchronet. I've followed the instructions to a tee, and I'm STILL stumped.

Nick is my Fidonet feed and I'm having no problems.

what problems are you having with sbbsecho's areafix? it does use a slightly different syntax than traditional areafix...

Please elaborate: how is the syntax different?
