    Say, could you quote back a typical log file entry (or two) by FE, whenever you pack a netmail?

    When netmail is exporting then Fe don't make a FileAttach like do with EchoMail.

    You should check that:
    1. FeSetup->System->'ARCmail Options'->'Archive extensions (Outbound)' have _not_ been changed from the arcmail standard of naming ("0-9")

    Yes, there are 0-9 Inbound and 0-9 OutBound

    2. the 'Status' (ARCmail) for each node is _not_ set to "No attach"

    Every node is a Crash/Direct and etc. no one node have no attach

    3. you are _not_ using 'FastEcho.Exe Pack -F' in your command-line

    I'm using fastecho pack -FROUTE.FE -P

    4. is it possible that the .CLO files are being processed faster by
    Argus than FE can create the arcmail bundle that it points to? Does
    the option(s) in FeSetup->System->ARCmail Options->'Mailer semaphores' have effect on Argus?

    The same problem is when Argus is not started.

    5. do you have the proper "List" character set for your DOS archiver programs in FeSetup->System->'Compression Programs'?

    Yes.
    All checked, netmail is packing with specified packer but FE don't make a FileAttach (*.clo)

    6. do you have some systems set as AKA addresses that share a single 'ARCmail address' in FeSetup->System->'Node Manager', and therefore,
    they share a single .CLO file?

    No

    Good luck! and keep us posted on developments.

    Yeah.

    From what you have told me, the mail should be being processed normally. I suspect that the packed netmails are being added to an existing bundle.

    The mail to your points will be in their own sub-directory, of course. The sub-directory name should be: 01E00080.pnt, under your normal (zone 2) outbound. Have you checked for mail there?

    If there might have been problems with Argus, then that could be a problem with
    your points sub-dir.<shrug> (I haven't looked at setting-up Argus in over 12 months. My combination of Binkley 2.60/XE and BinkD worked out smaller in terms of disk space, so I didn't proceed with Argus.)

    Have you checked with your other links to find out if they are *not* getting their netmails?

    Would you like a copy of David Nugent's InspectA utility, that you can use to view the contents of your outbound mail? (I still have a copy of the original archive.)

    Cheers,
    Paul.
