    From DavidG@21:1/999 to All on Sun Oct 13 10:01:53 2024
    Hey @all, David from SkyNet BBS here,

    I{m trying to get all messages using the dummy 21:1/999 and I tried Netmail to Areafix with LETMEIN as PWD and %ALL but I got an error. so is there any way to populate my message bases wit older content to at least test Mystic mutil and test stuff?

    Thanks all

    You can do a rescan once you have your own node number.

    The /999 address is just for simple testing.

    One of the issues is, you may do a rescan from /999 and someone else may pick up your mail.

    Once you apply for a node number and set it up you can get it all setup as you please.

    I'm late to this party, sorry..

    You will need your own node number to get a full rescan of message bases.

    The /999 is limited in what it offers by design.

    Hello Al,

    Thanks for taking the time, it's sometimes trial and error and becomes frustrating sometimes.

    Greetings.
