Yep, that's the way I do it. :)

First you need to setup your QWK hub in mystics QWK networking setup. I have Vert setup like this.

Network Name: DOVE-Net
Member Type: Node
FTP Host: dove.synchro.net
Login: <your QWK account>
Password: <your QWK password>
Use Passive: Yes
Packet ID: VERT
Archive Type: Zip
Use QWKE: Yes

Then I setup the message areas in their own group in the Message Base Editor. You need to be carefull that these message areas are connected to the correct areas from vert. QWK Network needs to be connected to the hub created above
and the QWK Base ID needs to match what is listed in DOVE-Net.txt that you
can download from Vertrauen. I have all these areas setup as echomail areas
and the Net Address are all set to 0:0/0 Local, and export to has 0 nodes.

On Vertrauen my QWK account is setup like this..

CTRL Color Codes: Expand to ANSI
Archive Type: Zip
Extended QWKE Packet Format: Yes

All of the other options are set to No since I don't know if mystic supports
or needs any of the other options. Be sure you are only exporting DOVE-Net areas from Vertrauen.. :)

Once this is all configured you can run qwkpoll 1 (if Vertrauen in node #1)
and it will pack and send msgs to / and get new msgs from DOVE-Net.

I have an interval event that grabs QWK packets for DOVE-Net as well as Developernet and Musicalnet every few hours.

I think that's all there is to it.. If I left anything out, just ask.. :)

Nice overview Al. I might QWK network DOVE-Net between my two BBSs, just for the exercise. As my main BBS runs Synchronet, and the second system runs Mystic, setup should be identical, except for the QWK ID I'm using. :)



... Always make sure you understand completely what you're jumping into.

Mystic -cfg

Configuration >> QWK Networking
/I to insert a new connection

Select the new entry:
Network Name: DoveNet
Member Type : Node
FTP Host : cvs.synchro.net
Login : Use your QWK login on Vert
Password : <password>
Use Passive : Yes
Packet ID : vert
Archive Type: I use Zip
Use QWKE : Yes

If you use QWKE on Mystic, you must also use QWKE on Vert.

Go to each of your dovenet qwk conferences in Editors >> Message Base Editor

QWK Network : Select the newly created qwknet entry for DoveNet
QWK Base ID : Enter the conference number for the individual conferences.


Run QWKPOLL to exchange mail.

NOTE: you can also setup an NNTP sync... that may be an easier route.
