• QWK Messages

    I am receiving MusicNet via QWK, and would like to transfer via BinkP to my other system as a point node. Is anyone else able to do this?

    I'm thinking I could go to the message base and export to the other system. I would use QWK on my Winserver system to do it direct, but not sure how to automate QWK mail transfer.

    I haven't tested this myself, but, yes, I think entering the settings of the message base and exporting it to the other system should do the trick.

    At least there are some text references inside the mis binary ("Mystic BBS/QWK Gate v1.12 A48 2022/04/03 (Linux/64)" which indicates some kind of "gating" capability.

    Best regards

    Yes you can feed QWK network via FidoNet to another node although the only person I can recall who ever really did something like that was NetSurge and his BBS has been down a while. Probably hasn't been tested for a while but you can gate between QWK <-> FTN with Mystic.
