    From Andy Gorman@1:387/28 to All on Fri Nov 12 10:24:03 2021
    I am working on setting up my Telegard system as a point off my Renegade setup. Is there anything special I have to do in the D'Bridge host to set it up as a point? I was going through the docs and didn't see much.

    Thanks!

    Normally a MSGID is inserted by the software that creates the message, whether it be a BBS, a SysOp editor like GoldED or MsgEd, or a utility program such as those that post text files in FTN message bases. For more details, consult FTS-0009. (http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-0009.001)

    The answer is specific to his question. He is running a BBS and its not possible for his tosser to add a REPLYID given his setup. There is no other layer, the only place it can work at all would be if his BBS does it.

    Fidonet is not about BBSs though BBSs can use it to link-up. Hence my answer is correct.

    The original question was "So is it the mailer or the BBS that handles MSGIDs?"

    "Handling MSGIDs" implies that the MSGID is already there otherwise it cannot be handled at all, so it's the tosser handling it, not the BBS.

    If you wanted to ask about setting or inserting a MSGID, then you expressed yourself rather poorly.

    His question was specific to his BBS running Renegade so jumping in about something else isn't beneficial and only serves to create confusion.

    (Fidonet was absolutely created with the sole purpose of networking bulletin board systems together. I was there. It has evolved since then but that was its entire purpose. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FidoNet)

    The original question was "So is it the mailer or the BBS that handles MSGIDs?"

    MSGID/REPLYID does not come from the mailer. It needs to come from the reader client (whatever that may be). The reader client is the only thing that knows what messages are replies to other messages, and as such its the only thing that can properly assign REPLYIDs. The MSGID itself can either come from the BBS or the tosser.

    This is nothing new, its how every BBS or client/reader works that support these systems properly, because thats how it has to work.

    If he wanted to have a full MSGID/REPLYID and thread tracking like he may be used to seeing in Mystic and Synchronet, then it must be done by Renegade and its proprietary .MSG tosser in his setup's case.

    My original net hasn't existed for decades, which really should be common sense. I spent a total of maybe 60 seconds to Google "old FidoNet nodelist" and immediately found one from 1994 with me in:

    https://happy.kiev.ua/pub/nodelist/old/nodelist/1994/nodelist.063

    Of course by 1994 I was a hub and running my own custom software out of a college town which didn't happen overnight. You could possibly still trace back into the 80s as a user posting about programming if you wanted to.

    Its almost like you didn't even care about diligence before you typed, and whatever this is that you're trying to do here isn't genuine. :)

    Please read what is said originally ... "handles" ... That means the
    MSGID is already there ... i.e. how will an existing MSGID be dealt with.

    A mailer isn't touching MSGIDs in any case, and what I said is 100% accurate.

    Hopefully he'll be able to distinguish between the person who understands the technology from the person who jumps into other people's conversations just to create arguments! This isn't on topic here anyway.

    I took the URL which you showed, used the search function of an editor for 'James Coyle' and 'nada'... Nodelists aren't intended to be read as a newspaper, they're technical documents intended to be machine-read.

    There is no person with the same name. There are 3 persons with the last name Coyle in that list, but all list a different Town then your currently listed Philadelphia. And there are no addresses in the nodelist (so we can't compare those). And there was no system with the name "Mystic BBS Support" in that nodelist. Have you even looked at that nodelist?

    to others not wanting to stoop to their level. Fidonet at it's finest.

    With the nodelist being at the center of Fidonet-operations, maintaining it at certain moments is a tedious business. Without a decent nodelist we're fried.

    While one might get upset with the nodelist police's activity, it's possible to just ignore it or try to turn it into a resource for monitoring what happens to said nodelist-entries. I'm in-between both.

    It resulted over the years into a pretty clean nodelist ... no more fax-numbers, no more private phones, no more street-adressess, in a certain case even someone's shoe-size. ill-formed flags, unknown flags.... more stuff.

    The "invention" of the daily-lists was also a seed planted by the nodelist-police and other things too all resulting from discussions.

    Gone are the days of Bob Satti and Ron Dwight who just loved sitting on their throne and dispensing their wisdom. In the case of Ron Dwight it meant a lot of controversial things and Bob Satti fought like hell first to keep high modem speeds and later IP out of the nodelist.

    It seems to me a lot has gone over your head when you make the remarks quoted above.

    This is just a clarification, nothing more.

    Take care,

    There is no person with the same name. There are 3 persons with the last name Coyle in that list, but all list a different Town then your
    currently listed Philadelphia. And there are no addresses in the
    nodelist (so we can't compare those). And there was no system with the name "Mystic BBS Support" in that nodelist. Have you even looked at that nodelist? You are not making any sense...

    Jim is the abbreviation for James, so yes its the same name. The Net 268 person decided he was going to use the abbrivated version when he listed me in 1991 and I didn't give a shit that he did. Any reasonable person would see that and come to the same conclusion but maybe its a language thing and you don't know they are the same name?

    Regardless this conversation was never about truth and it never is with you. *IF ONLY* there were 27 years of software releases that I've done where one could see the location and where other information could easily be verified...

    LOL

    You're better off leaving it alone my good man. These are the same
    people that police the nodelist (and yes, they actually made an echo for it) because they have nothing better to do besides argue with others
    until whatever conversation they decide to jump into abruptly goes
    silent due to others not wanting to stoop to their level. Fidonet at
    it's finest.

    Right on, its always for the best to get your amusement from them and then move on after a few. They have nothing better to do than to continue to make up a world that isn't real and try to argue things that aren't even arguable.

    They've been "harassing me" for years (at least I think thats what they think they're doing). I get amused by their backwards behavior so I keep it going for a bit...

    More recently part of me is saddened as I think about it. They've probably spent their entire mid-life engrossed in everything FidoNet. It was their lives, their passion, their personality was created on FidoNet. And then Fido became so incredibly insigificant. They literally made fun of me for using an alias and if that isn't an indicator of how amazingly out of touch they are...

    Anyway, yeah. This echo should be cowbell-only. Lets hope they'll keep their nonsense to their usual places (ie support areas for my software) and refrain from trying to harass me in other places.

    ... What hair color do they put on the driver's licenses of bald men?

    D'Bridge has a Cowbell feature, in fact a few hooks to allow playing of audio files on personal mail. So naturally I *expect* you to "one up" me every

    If you can actually convince everyone in the Mystic echo to do this and/or
    the Mystic installer will do this... that could be a "checkmate".
