[nos-bbs] JNOS and Winlink interfacing -- close but stuck

[Maiko Langelaar]

John,

> Perhaps I could fix this with a rewrite for Y at Z.

In the B2F scheme of things all addressing and other mail headers
are contained in the payload, unlike how it is done for regular FBB
stuff. The FC proposal basically just contains the message ID which
could be used to check for duplicates, and some checksum info.

If you read the *latest* notes, you will not see me use 'wl2k' as a user. 
The telpac stuff is considered obsolete, use a callsign of an actual user. 
The telpac to a winlink server idea is just something I was playing with, 
but it never really caught on with me. I always figured if I really wanted 
to get a message to a winlink user over the internet, I might as well just 
email them :) Perhaps I should have been more clear about that in past 
documentation.

The document below :

works very well for me, BUT it's direct RF to an RMS Packet system.

It's an ongoing project. I really want to make it so that you don't
have to preconfigure users, but it's a start.
