    Are you using Mystic? Your messages are probably getting thrown into the unsecure directory and tossed out. If you can check the mystic\echomail\in\unsecure directory after you poll and before your toss runs you can move them from the unsecure directory back to the echomail\in directory and it will toss them.

    Its a bit of a battle with Mystic and Metronet. Metronet doesn't support BinkP passwords and Mystic seems to have an issue with not having one...

    It's actually more of a Mystic wasn't written correctly for backwards compatibilty of this stuff. :) There should be an option like all Fido software before it allow passwords for connection, password for packet, etc. Not a all or nothing kinda thing. :(

    Synchronet is the same way. People need to stick to either BBS or FTN/Mailer authoring ... one or the other. Nick Andre will concur on this.

    I didn't find the mail file *.WE0 ... mystic must be chucking it somewhere

    Prior messages say that the fact we don't have BinkP passwords my be throwing Mystic SysOps off... Is there a reason we can't start using them??

    Because I use IREX and IREX only allows for a certain amount of boards to use passwords, and I am at my limit. I have nothing against session passwords, I just cannot do a million of them.

    Pretty sure I've never had any problems tossing mail from anyone, ever, and vice-versa.

    I have MANY Mystic systems connecting here...

    I connect to several nets MetroNet was the only one I had this problem with and it was because of the Unsecure message issue. Had to put a little workaround in place to copy the messages from the unsecure directory before the toss to get them to come in...
