  • BNNTP

    From Robert Wolfe@1:261/20 to All on Fri Nov 2 06:43:42 2018
    So, trying to send an article to my leafnode NNTP server from BBBS/2 and am getting the following:

    {0}[c:\bbbs] bbbs bnntp r news
    Trying to connect to NNTP server news. Connected to server.
    Reading group comp.os.os2.
    Reading group comp.os.os2.setup.misc. Reading group bbs.talk.
    Reading group alt.comp.os.windows-10. 181102 06:41 Posting of message 468 to alt.comp.os.windows-10 failed: 441 Post
    rejected, formatting error: Message-ID: header does not have
    domain name part.
    Closing connection to server.

    So I was wondering what may be going on here? I can send news to this server without any issues from other NNTP-based clients. Receiving with bnntp is fine, just not sending for some reason. Any info received on how to possibly fix this would be greatly appreciated.

    Please try again with today's binaries (see my previous message). Also verify that you have configured your hostname correctly in bcfg4 -> hostname -> general -> hostname.

    With the new binaries:

    With the new binaries it failed at first. But then I still had 'localhost' in the hostname portion. I corrected this and tried to send out news articles again. This time it worked. Thanks!
