Robert,

--- MultiMail/XT v0.49

Looks like I will have to my my 0.50 binary for this available on my BBS :)

For whatever reason, MultiMail kept locking up on me, so I had to go
to OLX. The main advantage with MultiMail, is it allows for longer
taglines. OLX is a bit limited on tagline length. But, it's better than
no QWK Mail at all.

I'm pretty certain you should have an OLXWin license if you were a
wildcat sysop when Mustang was alive. I believe they gave every sysop a licnese for OLX.

I registered it years ago...I think I originally was using SLMR. Unfortunately, I don't know if any shareware copies exist, or if it can
be registered.

The only thing I don't like about it is "shorter taglines", when
compared to Multi-Mail. But, I have to make do, because for whatever
reason, MultiMail kept crashing over here.

yes it does. you need to change the command line if you have pkzipconsole

you can actually upgrade 204g to 250 and keep most of the same command lines. that's for registered users and you need the utilities to do so.

i have used pkzip25 for ftn just fine.

I might still have the 1.10 version of PKZIP, but I use 2.04g, and it seems to work well.

pkzip 1.10 is shit and has an exploit. no reason to use it.

use info-zip if anything.

Is it not possible that your problem was actually with the command-line parameters (i.e. did not make the necessary changes when upgrading from v2.04 to 2.50)?

And just FYI, FTN packets are not zip files. FTN *bundles* may be zip files, but packets are just packets.
