No takers on my post from yesterday ??<BR> <BR>---------------------------------------------<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
Yeah.... Um... <BR> <BR>I gotta say there is something wrong with that part of the REWRITE file and how JNOS performs with messages to local users.<BR> <BR>First, all other aspects of my REWRITE file appear to work correctly, EXCEPT for local users sending messages to local users. That part of the rewrite file doesn't work correctly what-so-ever.<BR> <BR>My JNOS station call is kg6baj.<BR> <BR>My line in my REWRITE file for local stations looks like this:<BR>====================<BR><A href="mailto:*@kg6baj"><FONT color=#0068cf>*@kg6baj</FONT></A> $1<BR><A href="mailto:*@kg6baj"><FONT color=#0068cf>*@kg6baj</FONT></A>.* $1<BR>====================<BR> <BR>This just flat out doesn't work when one local user sends to another local user.<BR> <BR>Please note: The VERY LAST line in my REWRITE file is "* hold" so that anything not caught by the other rules gets put into the HOLD area and I can review it for adding in more rules. <BR> <BR>With this, any local user sending a message to any other local user, those messages get caught in the HOLD area and not the intended local users mail area.<BR> <BR>Here are some observations.<BR> <BR>Observation #1<BR>When a local user sends to another local user, they DO NOT add "<A href="mailto:...@KG6BAJ"><FONT color=#0068cf>...@KG6BAJ</FONT></A>" to the end of their "SP" command. They address it like this:<BR>"SP KC6QDK" NOT like this ---> "SP KC6QDK@KG6BAJ"<BR> <BR>Observation #2<BR>IF THEY DID USE "SP KC6QDK@KG6BAJ" then <U>IT DOES</U> get dilivered correctly<BR> <BR> <BR>Observation #3-a<BR>JNOS does not appear to be APPENDING an HROUTE to mail sent from local users to local users.<BR>If JNOS were to append an hroute, then a mail sent to "SP KC6QDK" would look like this "SP KC6QDK@KG6BAJ.#NCA.CA.USA.NOAM"<BR>(Noting here that the HROUTE would have to come from my <U>USERS.DAT</U> file when local users register at my station)<BR> <BR>Observation #3-b<BR>If an hroute were to be appended, the rewrite rule of "<A href="mailto:*@kg6baj"><FONT color=#0068cf>*@kg6baj</FONT></A>.* $1" <U><EM>should</EM></U> kick in and local mail <U><EM>should</EM></U> get delivered correctly.(Note <EM><U>"should"</U></EM>)<BR> <BR>Observation #4<BR>When a local user sends to another local user, and does not specify an "<A href="mailto:..@KG6BAJ"><FONT color=#0068cf>...@KG6BAJ</FONT></A>" to the end of it, I've looked at the VERBOSE contents of the mail delivered to the HOLD area and the "TO:" is always just the callsign with no "<A href="mailto:...@KG6BAJ"><FONT color=#0068cf>...@KG6BAJ</FONT></A>" added to the end. Thus the rewrite rules can't see it as something intended for local delivery.<BR> <BR>I'm not sure why jnos does not seam to check the "users.dat" file and make a determination as to who is REGISTERED at my station and automatically append either an HROUTE or append an "@KG6BAJ" to the "SP xxxxx" part.<BR> <BR> <BR>Observation #5<BR>For that matter, now that I think about it... I have REGISTERED users that visit my station, but have a HOME BBS somewhere else. "RK3KPK" is one of them.<BR>I checked my "USERS.DAT" file and he did include his HROUTE (CX2SA.LAV.URY.SA) when he registered. But if I were to send a private message to him using "SP RK3KPK" that message also gets thrown into the HOLD mail area, instead of being routed out to my forwarding partner. A VERBOSE read of the message when it hits the HOLD area also shows that no HROUTE was added to the "TO:" and thus jnos rewrite rules for forwading don't kick in. <BR> <BR>So... Any Ideas as to what's not working correctly here ???<BR> <BR>I would be happy to post any configurations here if requested. <BR> <BR>Bill<BR>KG6BAJ<BR> <BR>GVCITY:KG6BAJ-2 node<BR> <BR><A href="mailto:KG6BAJ@KG6BAJ.#NCA.CA.USA.NOAM"><FONT color=#0068cf>KG6BAJ@KG6BAJ.#NCA.CA.USA.NOAM</FONT></A><BR> <BR><BR> </body>
