    I have forgotten how to get Squish to route Netmail through my uplink.
    here is my route.cfg:

    Route world 1:140/1

    What is needed in squish.cfg? I can post the file if needed.

    Hope this helps. Keep us posted.

    We are a fine board trying to make it better.

    Time to go back to the basic maximus / squish documentation..... Pull out the sample squish.cfg and look. I know you need to define the netmail area a location on disk. And I'm sure there are several other parameters, including your fido address, and any packet passwords, etc. From memory, 1:140/1 typically forces packet passwords......

    I don't have the time right now to dig the full details out....

    Take care....

    Hi Gord,

    I have forgotten how to get Squish to route Netmail through my uplink. here is my route.cfg:

    Route world 1:140/1

    That should be all you need, provided all the other usual things are correct like YOUR Fidonet address, Netmail areas, etc...

    What is needed in squish.cfg? I can post the file if needed.

    Are you sure that SCHEDULE is being triggered?

    Cheers...............pk

    I have forgotten how to get Squish to route Netmail through my uplink. here is my Route.Cfg:

    Route world 1:140/1

    Because I'm lazy and currently only deal with Fidonet, I use "Send Hold World" in route.cfg's global section and let my mailer do all the work.

    What is needed in squish.cfg? I can post the file if needed.

    You need to atleast define a NetArea in Squish.Cfg eg.:

    NetArea <tag> <path> [flags] [nodes]

    Then when you pack netmail with

    Squish.exe SQUASH

    it should create some packets in your outbound directory.

    What mailer and BBS software are you using ?

    In this echo, and the message you replied to. I think it is fixed now.
    Will road test next week. Am upset that timEd will not do AKA
    matching in echo mail areas. :-( Will need to use GoldEd (yuck). Or
    stick with Termail.

    As per my message in the ARTWARE echo, use the -p parameter in your SQUISH.CFG,
    and timEd will use that address for the MSGID and Origin line of the message:

    EchoArea tub /home/fidonet/msg/fidonet/tub -$ -p3:633/267.666 1:379/1 3:633/267.1 3:633/270

    I am demonstrating it in this message. 3:633/267.666 is not my real address, obviously. :-)

    I guess I should get the ARTWARE echo since I wrote an ANSI viewer that was designed to work with TimEd specifically, huh? :)
