• Possible Bug?

    From Geo@VERT/DUNGEON to All on Wednesday, July 07, 2010 19:08:32
    Hi all,

    Just wanted to let you know that I may have a found a bug in the Web interface when sending email to a fidonet address.


    From the Web interface E-MAIL section, I send an email to

    Keith Matthews@3:712/620

    and then when I check the email in the queue using ;MAIL from the BBS main menu I see it addressed as such...

    keith matthews@3:712/620 (1:712/620)

    What is going on here?

    It seems to have recognised that it is a fidonet Netmail, but gone an kludged the To address to point to a non existand node in Zone 1 of the same address.

    Is this a bug?

    You can't send FidoNet NetMail using the web interface. It is not a bug. The capability is planned to be addressed in v4 when Synchronet and SBBSecho are redesigned to handle FIdoNet NetMail in the Synchronet mail database.
