  • should i see my system in bbses.ini?

    From Rampage@1:103/705 to Digital Man on Fri Nov 9 11:39:52 2018
    should i see my system listed in data/bbses.ini or only the other bbses doing QWK networking?

    i understand that it is a routing file so my system will know how to route PVT QWK mails to the destination...

    No, only other systems.

    No, actually the route.dat file is used for that purpose.

    hopefully the old ones will age out or otherwise be removed... i've stopped changing the name trying to figure out the better way to display it... i didn't
    know that carried over to so much other data files...
