    Has something changed since the last update. I can no longer relay mail through cvs. This is the error code I'm getting. I know there were a lot of changes to the sbbs.ini, and I thought I copied the data that was needed to the new file correctly, but I may have missed something. Thanks In Advance.

    Is it possible that your ISP is preventing outbound connections on port 25? I'm not having any trouble connecting to cvs.synchro.net on that port.

    You may want to revise your setup in accordance with this:

    (And note that mail.synchro.net seems to be the preferred address now, though cvs.synchro.net will still work.)

    It was me EC, when I changed to the new update a few days ago, I didn't transpose al the date to the new SBBS.ini file correctly. I went back and re read the wiki and found my mistake. Thanks for the reply.

    Oh, BTW, I'm thinging about going to ecweb, what is the newest version, and where is the bset place to snag a copy. Also, if I use ecweb, do I have to use ecreader on the bbs. Thanks

    Maybe wait a few days, I'm fixing up a file-download bug right now, so you'd want to update soon anyhow.

    No, the two are unrelated. Actually I don't recommend using ecreader in general.

    OK, sounds good, I'll just wait to my next day off. I've got kind of used to editing the Ruinmaster on with a plain text editor, can I do the same with yours, and can I add on to it and give it a different personality without mucking it up :)

    Awesome, thanks

    Is that where you click the file and the browser just displays a new
    pages with {} on it?

    I have files like that and also long file name issues: region1-10.zip
    shows up as region1-.10.

    My last update was in September I think.

    Thanks!

    I think that was one of a couple of things that were fixed.

    I don't think there's much I can do about this without getting a bit hacky. I may take a peek and see if there's a reasonable solution.

    Don't update your web UI at this time unless your build of Synchronet is fairly new (like from within the past month or so). I'll be updating things to make it more 3.16c-friendly in the near future.

    Addfiles issue not supporting long filenames. (forgot about that)

    Is there a way to link that information here:

    I usually do a full update every few months, so I will update everything
    to current this month.

    Anyone with a QWK account on Vertrauen can log into the wiki and create / edit pages. (I would do it, but I don't use addfiles or file areas very often, and I don't really care enough about this problem to bring myself up to speed.)

    The BBS Configure program for Mail(Server) does not have an entry for the mail server one wants to use. The wiki says it should. So how can I set the bbs up to use gmail or another mail server...or point me to the correct documentation.

    The BBS Configure program for Mail(Server) does not have an entry for the mail server one wants to use.

    The Synchronet mail server *is* a mail server. I'm not sure what you're asking. If you want the Synchronet mail server to relay mail through another another mail server (your mail clients would still use the Synchronet mailserver *as* their mail server), then yes, the relay related settings setting are in the [mail] section of ctrl/sbbs.ini

    If you're running SCFG v3.20, these same settings are available in SCFG->Servers->Mail Server->SendMail Thread->Delivery Method (set to Relay).

    The wiki says it should.

    What exactly does it say? Which page? I think you're mistaken (there haven't been any Wiki updates to reference the new "Servers" section in SCFG v3.20 that I'm aware of).

    So how can I set
    the bbs up to use gmail or another mail server...or point me to the correct documentation. thanks
