• NetMail Support

    From NuSkooler@21:1/121 to All on Sun Sep 17 18:34:40 2017
    I'm starting to prep for adding NetMail support to Enig... Created a new issue on GitHub to track it. If you're "in the know" about NetMail, please let me know what I'm missing!

    Basically, my ideas are as such:
    * User to user NetMail in enig's "private" mail section
    * If you type in a user@<ftn_address> it will attempt to send to that address
    * If you explicit select "Send NetMail" opt, you'll be able to search for
    addresses by arbritary search across system nodelist (e.g. to find the address)
    * System will combine incoming nodelists / diffs -> internal DB
    * Support AreaFix -- looking for feedback on required features here. What do
    people actually use/need? I'd like to be able to auto-sub to areas for e.g.
    * Other... ??!!

    Standards:
    FTS-5000 and FTS-5001 seem to be the main. The GitHub issue I linked shows more.

    Any suggestions / info welcome!!

    The only thing that comes to mind for me is ENigma will need to be able
    to act as an uplink, other wise areafix is kind of pointless I think?

    With netmail generally comes Areafix and Filefix and possibly Hatching files. Still one thing at a time, user to user, has to come first. Then AreaFix programing and other such uplink and downlink handling for message bases.
