- VP (AKA VPurge) Modified ConfMail, v4.07
-
- Rename this module to CM.EXE and put it in your \BINK subdirectory over
- the previous CM.EXE module. It differs from the original in eight ways.
-
- 1. All known null pointer problems are corrected.
- 2. The problems with Mei and some (Dutchie?) messages causing hangs
- or traps are corrected (date formatting).
- 3. Grunged packet and message header hangs and traps are corrected.
- 4. If the line in AREAS.BBS has a # before the first Node address,
- including as the first character of the line, the area is treated as
- a true passthru area: upon full and successful Export of all messages
- in that area, they are all deleted and a fresh 1.MSG is created. This
- makes it compatible with QMail AREAS.BBS files.
- 5. The longstanding problem with parsing the commandline for Import or Export
- without a -A has been fixed.
- 6. Commandline switches may now begin with either a "-" or a "/".
- 7. It can be called without any parameters without serious damage.
- 8. It now avoids self-destruction when processing messages with really
- screwed up message header fields.
-
- This module has now replaced CM.EXE in all the archives at 1:109/301; those
- with copies of those archives are encouraged to do the same.
-
- The OS/2 version of this program is available in VP2.ZIP from 1:109/301.
-
- Source for both the VP and VP2 4.07 versions is online and available from
- 1:109/301 as VP2SRC.LZH, around 107K in size.
