• Re: DoveNET QWKTag Line I

    When you look at your message bases via: mystic -cfg > Editors > Message Base Editor > <any Dovenet area>, what does it say on the right side
    under "Network"? Does it say "QWKNet" for all of them?

    Ahhh - no, they are listed as 'Local' in the Network tab.

    Then, when you edit one of those (take Dovenet - General, for example), what do you have under:

    Base Type: Local
    Net Address: 0:0/0 (Local Address)
    Origin: 2o fOr beeRS bbS>>>20ForBeers.com:1337
    QWK Network: DOVE-Net
    QWK Base ID: 2015

    If QWK Network = None, keep reading..

    This is the only thing I have setup correctly, it seems?? :P
    ... and the Origin, which isn't going out prolly b/c of my other settings.

    in 'mystic -cfg > Networking > Echomail Addresses', do you have an entry for Dovenet (even if it's 0:0/0, at least you're specifying a domain and description)?

    Nope - I don't... I thought these Addresses were only for FTNs/FidoNet.

    If not, and all of the above mentioned stuff checks out, try making one Ac> with this info:
    Address
    Zone 0
    Net 0
    Node 0
    Point 0
    Domain dovenet
    Description Dovenet
    Primary No

    ... ok - Mystic won't let me add a 0:0/0 Echomail Address; the 'dovenet' goes away when I press enter/ESC, I'm assuming b/c its 0:0/0 - do you run a Mystic BBS and can just copy/paste exactly what you have in your setup?

    OR, at least I know what I'm doing wrong - and I'll ask other Mystic sysops their setup... the DoveNet traffic was flowing, so I thought I had it setup correctly. Also, I'll go review the Mystic Wiki for info I missed. THANKS!

    Hey paulie420!

    On Sat, 29 Mar 2025 10:35:00 +0000, you wrote:

    Then, when you edit one of those (take Dovenet - General, for

    Change this to "Networked"

    If QWK Network = None, keep reading..

    ... and the Origin, which isn't going out prolly b/c of my other

    If the "Base Type" is set to "Local", then that is why it's not appending a tear/origin line.

    Nope - I don't... I thought these Addresses were only for FTNs/FidoNet.

    This may be the case. I was covering a lot of places at once, to see if I could pinpoint the issue. Should be as easy as changing your "Base Type" for each message area in Dovenet.

    ... ok - Mystic won't let me add a 0:0/0 Echomail Address; the 'dovenet' goes away when I press enter/ESC, I'm assuming b/c its 0:0/0 - do you

    This may not matter, and you may not need to do it.

    OR, at least I know what I'm doing wrong - and I'll ask other Mystic sysops their setup... the DoveNet traffic was flowing, so I thought I
    had it setup correctly. Also, I'll go review the Mystic Wiki for info I missed. THANKS!

    Change the above option only, for each message area in Dovenet, and you should be good to go.

    Regards,
    Nick
