• MSGID issue

    From bcw142@21:1/145 to All on Thursday, April 27, 2017 07:33:09
    Dan's system doesn't show MSGID and I had posted to his General Messages area which is local so it won't show up elsewhere. I guess I need to stick to posting here in the FSXNet Mystic echo to make sure I can see a MSGID ;(
    So still have some unknowns:
    1 Are Posts different from Replies?
    2 Do multiple posts work on any systems repeatedly?
    A. With QWK
    B. With QWKE
    C. with Mutil posts
    3 Do multiple replies work on any systems repeatedly?
    A. With QWK
    B. With QWKE
    C. Are there other variables?
    4 Does QWK act differently from QWKE?

    Since Avon says he's running a fast system vs my Pi, it's less likely system speed factors in. QWKE on MultiMail v0.49 doesn't make a MSGID on it's own, it's not in the rep packet or the specification. It has to be added by Mystic itself when it gets the rep packet and puts it in the message base. QWK
    packets existed before MSGID existed, so the systems add them. I'm sure that multiple replies from the same QWKE rep packet most often have the same MSGID. The same goes for multiple mutil posts from the same .ini file. I thought multiple posts sent from a rep packet also had duplicate MSGIDs, but haven't checked that in A32 yet. So there's still a lot to check out on this.

    I didn't realize that the local message bases didn't show the MSGID. I had
    been doing most of my testing in a mock message network that I have setup here between computers.

    I had forgotten about it, but yes, local messages don't have MSGID on mystic
    at present. I also figured it's better to use the Mystic Echo as it's mystic we're testing. So it seems most stuff works on Mystic A32 with the exception
    of MIS2 stuff which is very much alpha still.
