    Hi all.

    The fsxNet HUB 1/100 has been updated and is now running Mystic 1.12 Alpha 32

    From the WHATSNEW.TXT file..

    [snip]

    ! Fixed a problem in QWK packets that could cause packet corruption when
    processing messages greater than 64kb. Great big thanks to William
    McBrine for the report and the suggested fix: Check out his awesome mail
    reader MultiMail if you haven't!

    ! When processing echomail PKT files, Mystic was not properly reading in
    the seconds from the message post date/time, if it was supplied by the
    sending mailer. Please note that in some cases, this could invalidate
    current duplicate message databases, but this will of course correct
    itself over time.

    For clarification: QWK and QWKE do not have message seconds so there is
    no similar issue on the QWK side.

    - Turned off debug logging in MIS1 BINKP and FIDOPOLL. Rejoice (for now!)

    ! Posting multiple text files at once with MUTIL to the same FTN networked
    message base could create posts that all contained the same MSGID. Fixed.

    + MUTIL PostTextFile now includes the TZUTC kludge when posting to
    FTN-style message bases.

    ! MX menu command (post text file to message base) was not adding the MSGID
    or TZUTC kludges when posting to a FTN networked message base. Fixed.


    [snip]

    The latest alpha files have just been hatched out to the FSX_MYST file echo. Nodes connected to this file echo will have these files landing in their inbound directory about now :)

    Best, Paul

    Yes cool eh? :)

    I'm going to have a bit of a play with it all over the coming days or so and
    do some more tests.

    I did do one test on this end, and posted three text files to an echo. Each
    had their own MSGID! :)

    g00r00, if you're lurking about, Awesome work!!! :)

    Wow! I am very happy to have contributed, after all I opened the ticket with William, and he told me would notify g00r00 of it :)

    Way to go!

    Any words of wisdom for sysops who are planning to upgrade their linux installations with the latest version?
