• Exporting and Importing qwk mail packets

    From Phil Taylor@21:1/242 to All on Sun Mar 1 15:30:56 2026

    Hello

    I am using the current version of Mystic running on Microsoft Windows and since I last updated using the old version of Mystic its telling me zero messages posted after posting messages in the message base.

    mutil -run ImportEchoMail,Linkmessages
    mutil -run ExportEchoMail|mis poll send
    mutil -run ImportEchoMail,Linkmessages
    mis poll forced
    mutil -run ExportEchoMail|mis poll send
    mutil -run ImportEchoMail,Linkmessages
    #qwkpoll all export
    QWKPOLL all EXPORT C:\Users\plt\mysticbbs\localqwk
    #qwkpoll 1 export
    qwkpoll all

    mutil -run ImportEchoMail,Linkmessages

    What's with the -run??? That's not needed, neither is the Linkmessages. Don't even think that is a command option.

    My hourly poll command looks like this:
    ./mis poll forced|./mutil mailin.ini

    Then when someone logs off after posting either echomail or netmail:

    ./mutil mailout.ini:./mis poll forced|.//mutil mailin.ini
    With the semaphore setting: echomail.out|netmail.out

    The -run option was introduced in A47 and is what's installed by default for events in new installations. You can run mutil -L to see which commands you can use with the -run command. Check out the whatsnew.txt file for more info.

    I am running Mystic BBS on Microsft Windows and I need the entire batch file used to export, import both qwk and fidonet mail. I need the commands lines to pull both qwk and echo mail?

    Thanks
