• Netmail notifications

    From Sigsegv@21:3/106 to All on Tue May 26 05:05:54 2020
    All ,

    I am wondering what I have setup wrong. Whenever I get a Netmail message addressed to my real name, I don't get any sort of notification when I log
    in that I have a new email waiting.

    My user information has my Real Name, but I suspect there is probably some mapping issue? I am using Mystic's built-in BinkP for all processing.

    Any advice?

    Thanks!

    The default the option in the prelogin menu is MC which scans for local-only messages addressed to you.

    You can change this to MN with data reading /P /G /NOFROM /NOREAD it will scan all bases for new messages to your user in all message bases and in all
    groups.

    I'm wondering if I can set it to search my local.email and fsxnet.netmail groups only.. and if I add any other message networks, their netmail areas too.. I'm sure theres options available to scan each email/netmail area one
    by one, right??

    Hmm, you may be able to use MA to change to a netmail area and then use MN to scan for messages omitting the /G parameter to keep it in the same message base. Repeat this for each of your netmail areas.

    I haven't tested this, so it may not work as expected.


    Check out the Message Bases section of:

    For a list of options and what you can put into the data field.

    ... Beat's me!!! I never read the documentation.

    Thanks for trying to address this; as stated, I hadn't researched it yet... when I do, and implement it, I'll be sure to post a quickee saying how I did so... I bet its very similar to your suggestions.
