  • Mis Poll

    Hi James

    You know how FIDOPOLL is no more.. with that removal had the killbusy -all option gone for good as well?

    I did a quick check of A46 that I am currently running and the reported
    options are

    POLL SEND - Only send/poll if node has new outbound messages
    POLL FORCED [Type] - Poll/send to all nodes of session [Type] (Blank/All)
    POLL [Address] - Poll/send echomail node [Address] (ex: 46:1/100)

    Personally I found it a helpful feature to have when clearing out issues with stuck tossing jobs.

    Fidopoll still works in A46 its removed in A47. MIS in A47 has all of the options of fidopoll including the killbusy option.

    It also gives addition information as to what busy files it finds (if any) in A47.
