1. Is mystic able to process *files* that are sent to QWK network nodes? Setting up GameNet via QWK and wondering if I'll be able to process nodelists and infopacks to my files area, or whether I should stick to a FTN setup?
2. Related: when setting up a QWK network, is there an easy way to
import, ala the way mystic can do with FTN 'importna.ini'?
3. QWK network Hubs are SBBS-based, just wondering how this community regards QWK vs FTN? Love interoperability, but curious :)
With FTN Mystic can just auto-create the areas you don't even need to import anything, but with QWK there isn't a way to do that. You can
make your own file to import to create the areas but you'd still need to set their QWK Base ID afterwards.
FTN is more complex/convoluted but more capable overall (imo). QWK networking is pretty limited.

Those extentions that SBBS uses are not well know and I think that is largely why it hasn't been adopted in other software.
