  • Email and other stuff with mbse

    From Vince Coen@2:250/1 to All on Sun Nov 3 16:26:55 2019
    Hello All!

    I have a need to send and receive netmails and emails.

    This is using a program written to process elists in a language that does not play nice with
    binary data unless the format is known, so.

    So I have found that sending to netmail address with a created file containing the msg or other
    text, I can just use mbmsg post.

    Receiving is a different matter as I would have liked to define an echo area as msg based and
    not Jam but mbse does not support anything other than Jam but is there a solution to read a
    given area looking for netmails addressed to blogs@2:250/1? or looking for three specific
    subject lines or some other way ?


    Next is doing the same by email say via postfix and or mailx.
    Here it is going to a specific POP3 account and saving them as text files with some specific
    filename format so that a program can search for them say in the inbound directory or another
    one.

    Like wise, sending replies out can be done may be using mailx as I am not too sure about using
    postfix with the example given in the manual under heading Internet Gateway at page 93.


    Any one any ideas ?
