  • mutil ExportEchoMail, mutil FileToss, qwkpoll all and semaphores

    From Björn Wiberg@2:201/137 to g00r00 on Tue Apr 26 19:53:42 2022
    Hello g00r00!

    After some experimenting, it appears that:

    * mutil ExportEchoMail doesn't remove the newsmail.out semaphore
    * mutil FileToss doesn't remove the filebone.out semaphore
    * qwkpoll all doesn't remove the qwkmail.out semaphore

    (I'm comparing this to the fact that mutil ExportEchoMail *does* appear to remove the echomail.out and netmail.out semaphores.)

    Perhaps this is something that could be adjusted in future releases?

    (Although it might still be a good idea to "Kill After" those semaphores in
    any events, just to be on the safe side...)

    Thanks in advance!

    Best regards
    Björn

    I think I just recently added those in by request as it used to always rely on your event system to delete the semaphores. So I will add the others you mentioned for consistancy in the next build.

    Please let me know if you notice any problems once you get the next build.
