  • Netmail file and Mystic?

    From Jeff Smith@1:282/1031 to All on Wed Jun 17 23:04:44 2020

    Hello everybody!

    I have recently began using Mystic and MakeNL together. One
    of the things that I noticed is that Mystic doesn't seem to
    know what to do with .msg netmail files. And there isn't
    an option with MakeNL to use Mystic's JAM file format for
    netmail messages. At the moment I avoid the handling of
    netmail by writing a bash script to look for the newest
    segment update file and sending it upstream. Any thoughts
    on making Mystic more compatible with MakeNL and .msg files
    for use in the natmail message area?

    Do that or create the file in a filebox. Thats about it...

    At the moment I am doing both. The bash file picks the newest
    segment file and copies said file to a filebox to be sent out.
    To make MakeNL happy I have a directory where it can place it's
    .msg files.
