- 27.05.92 - release of v1.2 as shareware
- --------
-
- 22.05.92 - NEW: FidoPCB now checks NetMail messages to see if they are
- -------- destined for a node for which you use an AKA. If such a message
- is found, the AKA used for EchoMail to that node, will be used
- for the NetMail message.
- - NEW: Domain strings may be specified for each AKA defined in the
- configuration file. This is applied to the ^aMSGID line of
- exported messages, and can be up to 20 characters in length.
- - FidoPcb can now be configured for 30 nodes (previous versions
- were limited to 10). This requires you to set FILES=65 in your
- CONFIG.SYS file!
- - NetMail (MATRIX) messages received in .PKT format are now treated
- the same way as those received in .MSG format.
-
- 18.05.92 - NEW: When exporting messages, FidoPCB looks for the occurrence
- -------- of 'SYSOP' in the FROM: and TO: fields of the message header.
- If found, it is changed into the name defined by the SYSOP
- command in FIDOPCB.CFG. This was done because otherwise it can
- cause a bit of confusion for other SysOps, who would get a lot
- of mail that is incorrectly addressed to them.
-
- 16.05.92 - *** IMPORTANT *** Registration method changed! FidoPCB can now
- -------- be registered by Credit Card (Mastercard or Eurocard only). The
- registration form may be sent via: NetMail, Fax, or regular Mail.
- You may also file the online registration questionnarie on
- MicroArt BBS, or by posting the registration form as a comment
- to the SysOp. Four different versions (and prices) are
- available:
- a) up to 256 areas - $39 / 62 DEM
- b) up to 512 areas - $49 / 79 DEM
- c) up to 1024 areas - $59 / 94 DEM
- x) customized limit - $69 / 110 DEM (32767 areas max.)
- Prices changed because of high cost of user support in the USA,
- and because of the costs involved in Credit Card acceptance.
- After receipt and verification of the order, a Key File will be
- uploaded to your BBS.
- - *** IMPORTANT *** FidoPCB now uses a Key File for registration!
- A Shareware Key File is supplied with the unregistered version,
- and the program operates in this mode until a registered key file
- is used. The key file contains some of the information located
- in the FIDOPCB.CFG file.
- - NEW: Added duplicate checking, wherein all duplicates will be
- copied into the LOST MAIL area. The first two lines of these
- messages contain "DUPLICATE" and the AREA name, so you can check
- if they really are duplicates and take the proper action.
- - NEW: New Parameter, DUPE_CHECK, specifies the number of messages
- to check for duplication. Use of this parameter generates the
- file, MSGS.DUP. The size of the file depends on the number of
- messages checked (4 bytes/message). Fields used for checking:
- FROM, TO, SUBJ, DATE and TIME.
- - NEW: Added recognition of the ^aINLT flag on imported MATRIX
- messages to obtain the origin zone of incoming messages.
- - NEW: Added recognition of the ^aFMPT flag on imported MATRIX
- messages to obtain the point of incoming messages.
- - NEW: Private PCBoard messages are now exported with the PRIVATE
- flag set, and imported, private, messages are marked as private
- as well.
- - NEW: Exported messages now have a ^aMSGID flag with a @domain
- field.
- - NEW: FIDOPCB.LOG now lists processed packet names.
- - Fixed minor bugs with SEEN-BY lines.
- - FidoPCB now really checks for the existence of '* Origin:' lines
- when exporting messages. A bug caused it to work only 0% - 50%
- of the time.
