Remember we shall use a temporary address with Zone:Net/9999 e.g (1:278/9999) please replace the 278 with the Network address in your area that you will belong to. When you actually get your own Node address from your Network Co-Ordinator (NC), you will need to come back to this setup and change all the occurrences of the temporary number to your own actual FidoNet address number. System Operator Name and Bulletin Board Name should be replaced with yours. Replace my primary address above (1:278/9999) with your own temporary address. Select Frontdoor or InterMail based on which one you are using as your Mailer Type. Make sure all the drive letters and directories (path) as seen above matches your setup. If you have created the same directories on the C:\ drive, as previously instructed, then you will not have to change anything here. If \BADECHO directory does not exist under your Wildmail directory, e.g. C:\WM40\BADECHO as seen above, then create it or let Wildmail create it for you when you are prompted. Inbound Path 1: should be directed towards your inbound files directory in Frontdoor or InterMail which is C:\FD\FILES or C:\IM\FILES Inbound Path 2: should be blank because it's the same as your Inbound Path 1. Outbound Path: should be directed towards your packets directory in Frontdoor or InterMail which is C:\FD\PACKETS or C:\IM\PACKETS. Netmail Path: should be directed towards your Netmail directory in Frontdoor or InterMail which is C:\FD\NETMAIL or C:\IM\NETMAIL. Those above directories should already have been created when you were installing your Frontdoor or InterMail Mailers. Make sure they are there! Note: Please disregard the "Mail router: C:\QM\QMAIL.EXE" option above as that is only needed and partains to D'Bridge Mailer only, this is not required for our Frontdoor or InterMail setup. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

BBS SPECIFIC OPTIONS: ============================== When you highlight and press Enter key on "BBS Specific Options" you get this menu, this menu is very important and relates specifically to Wildcat! BBS alone. The "Home directory/path" is where all your WC!4x BBS files are located. Please leave the "Pre-process echomail" to N for NO for now until you have become very efficient with Wildmail, the "Pre-processing path" should be dimmed out and cannot be edited. Make sure the "File Attach path" is correct for the path and directory we have created before this process as seen above. Now highlight "Netmail Conference Number" (mine is Conference #5) and hit F2 function key, you will get a pop-up screen (as seen on next three pages) showing you all the conference listings from Wildcat!, you should have created this conference at the beginning of this process. Highlight your Netmail conference from the list and press F10 function key to accept it. Leave all the other options above the way you see them for better result. The screen here shows you that that your defined Netmail conference Number 5 or whatever your Netmail conference has been saved and accepted. Now highlight "Valid CRASH MAIL users" options to tell Wildmail the names of users that can send Crash Netmail from your BBS, (read more on Crashmail later from Wildmail & your Mailer documentation), when you press enter on this option, the lists of your users from your Wildcat! User Database will pop-up, you should highlight your own name and press spacebar to toggle your name, so you can be able to send crash mail within your BBS. If you will also allow any of your other users to be able to send crash mail from your BBS, you should also highlight their name or names and press space bar to toggle and you should see a dot (.) next to their names. See next coming pages for sample pop-up screen to select users with CrashMail access. You should also give yourself enough Netmail and Account balances. Note: Do not give CrashMail to all your users, caution should be taken with this option, it is only wise to give yourself alone (Sysop) or your (Co-Sysop) the CrashMail access. When you select Netmail Flags, the next screen will pop-up, make sure you select or toggle them the way I have it here, or else you may be looking for trouble. Toggle Private (PVT), Crash (CSH) and Local (LOC). 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

When you have toggled the necessary Flags, you should then see the followings on the: Netmail message flags: PVT CSH LOC (definitions below) PVT = Private - because all the mails in Netmails conference should be Private CSH = Crash - because when you write a Netmail you want it to go Crash. LOC = Local - because the message is created locally on your board. Crash - means you want the Netmail message written to go out right away and directly to it's destination. This is how Netmail supposed to work as opposed to echomails which goes to every board. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

This setup is very important, or you will not be able to get your echomails and your echomails will never leave your Wildcat! BBS to the rest of the world. Go thorough it carefully. If you highlight "Node Address Management" from the Main Menu and hit enter key, you will get this screen to setup the information for HUB(s) that you will be calling for your echomails or Nodes that will be calling you for mails if you are a HUB. In our example setup, I have used my own area temporary address and my HUB address, you should modify this to match your own HUB information by pressing INS key to create a new one for yourself and the above screen menu should pop-up for you to input all the information. Remember we have already defined one fake or temporary HUB in the beginning of this setup when you initially install Wildmail, you can now go and modify that and follow the above settings, and when you actually know your HUB and get setup, you can then change all the node address information to match your particular actual HUB. Node Address: You will enter the address info for the HUB or the Node as seen above. See sample screen on next pages to come. Net Membership: When you highlight this option and press enter you will see the lists of your defined Networks, Wildmail has already defined three for you when you installed Wildmail namely: FIDONET_NA, FIDONET_NO and OCRNET. You will only be concerned with FIDONET_NA and FIDONET_NO which are for FidoNet Networks. So select all the two of them if they are not already selected. See sample screen below on next pages to come. Active Node: Make sure the "Active Node" is set to YES. Selected Confs: This are the lists of conferences that you want to get from this HUB, when you press enter here the lists will pop-up for you to toggle the desired conferences. Note: You cannot be able to select a conferences for a HUB or a Node until you have selected the Net Member ship above, and also you must save that first and then come back into this option before you can select the Conferences So make sure you have completed all the other settings here and then save it, then come back here to toggle the conferences. But when you come back here and press this option, all the lists of your conferences as defined in FIDONET_NA and FIDONET_NO will pop-up and be displayed to you to select the conferences you want. Sysop Name: This should be the Sysop Name for this HUB or Node, just for informational and identification purposes only, not really needed. BBS Name: This is the BBS Name for this HUB or the Node, for informational and identification purposes only, not really needed. Voice #: Voice Phone Number for this HUB or Node (if he gave it to you), for informational and identification purposes only, not really needed. BBS #: BBS Phone Number for this HUB or Node, for informational and identification purposes only, not really needed. Maximum Messages PKT: This should not exceed 300 because some earlier mail tosser cannot deal with a packet higher than this number, be safe. Maximum uncompress bytes: Better leave this at the default number. PKT file format: You should and MUST leave this at: Type 2.2. Inbound and Outbound PKT Password: Should normally be blank. Flags on Netmail msg: Should always be PVT KIL LOC (press enter key to select and toggle those options from the pop-up list.) Uncompress PKT path: C:\WILDUUCP\GATE\ You should only have this changed if you are using WILDUUCP for Internet, otherwise just leave it alone. If Wildmail does not detect that you have WildUUCP, this option will be dimmed. Use Standard naming: Should normally be Y for YES. press F1 for details. Compress Format: Where to select the appropriate compressor/uncompressor that your HUB is using for your mails (you better ask him/her though). Kill Orphan Messages: Should normally be Y for YES, since you don't want some stray mails getting into your message database. Use Tiny SEEN-BY: lines: Should normally be N for NO, so your messages don't get clobbered with those ridiculous SEEN-BYs. In some Network, people will even yell at you for leaving your SEEN-BYs on. Expiration Processing: You do not need this options and are not required for our setup, if you want to use this option, then refer to WM40.DOC for more information on this. I don't use it! AreaRequest Options: This is needed if you are going to be a HUB, but for now just leave this options alone since you are new to this things, and I am sure you don't want to be a HUB at this stage. Leave all options at N for NO especially "Allow AreaRequest functions:" but when you are ready to be a HUB, this will be the option you will use to turn it ON. With this option set to NO, all the other settings under it will be dimmed. Miscellaneous Informations: This is where you will enter postal or residential address or comments you may have for this HUB or Node. Explore at your own time, because this is not needed for our setup or even any setup at all, this is for informational and identification purposes only. Leave all the options as seen above and if you need more information, please refer to your best friend which is Wildmail documentation, i.e. WM40.DOC. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

If you have other Private Networks that you belong to, you will first add them to the setup in Wildmail database and then they will also be listed in this pop-up screen, but for now just concentrate on the FidoNet setup and then you can learn how to add other Private Networks to Wildmail, it's a very simple process but we are not going cover that setup here, it's a totally different process, let's make this setup simple for now. I will show you how to add your Private Network later in this setup in case you need it. Note: You can have more than one Network belongs to a HUB or Node. For example, if you pickup your FidoNet, AfroNet, and WildNet from the same HUB, you don't need to define three separate Node Definition for this HUB, you can just select all the three different Networks for this HUB here. (The only exception to the above is if you are using a different address for each Network, in that case you have to define each separately.) 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

CONFERENCE AREA MANAGEMENT (This is very important in our setup) ========================== This is where we shall create and define our echomail conferences for Wildmail and match it with the conferences we have already created in our Wildcat! BBS thru Makewild, so that Wildmail will be able to know which conferences to import (toss) and export (scan) our messages. Also we shall match the conferences to each HUB we call (poll) for our echomail in case you pull more than one echomail Network from different or more than one HUB. I have already created two sample conferences here for you, the first one is called Netmail and the other is an Echomail for Wildcat! FidoNet Conference, follow the same pattern and example here to create more conferences when needed. The Netmail conference shall remain the same and should be ONLY one, you cannot have more than one Netmail Conference but you can have as many echomail conferences as you want (there is a difference between Netmail and Echomail Conference). In our earlier setup we have already linked Netmail conferences we defined in Wildcat! to Wildmail. So you will not see any Netmail Conference definition in this sample settings. The sample above is only for echomail conferences and none is required for Netmail Conference. We shall only deal with creating and linking echomail conferences with Wildcat! Message conferences and Wildmail conference definition here. Press INS key to create or define a conference. Follow the sample defined here as seen below for all your other echomail conference definition. Note: This is where you will be spending most of your time, because each conference you intend to echo will have to be defined here. That means, if you will be echoing 100 conferences on your board then you will have to define 100 conferences here as well as your BBS. Don't be scared, let's proceed. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

Area Name: This is the echo area TagName from FIDONET.NA or your Network EchoList listings supplied by FidoNet or your Network to identify this conference. Our example uses WILDCAT, because that is the TagName from FIDONET.NA. FidoNet does not work like TNET where you use Conference Numbers from your HUB, here in FidoNet format, you will use AREA TAG Name instead of the conference number. Wildmail should have already installed FIDONET.NA and FIDONET.NO in your C:\WM40\ECHOLIST for you. You should print out this Ascii text file for all FidoNet conference tagnames for your reference. Note: When you highlight the option "FTSC Area Name:" above and press enter, if the space is blank, Wildmail will give you an error message that says: "The area definition must contain a valid name", just press enter on that error message again and all the conference area already installed in Wildmail will pop-up for you to select the TagName for this conference, also you can see the description for this same conference, just highlight the conference you want and accept it and it should be imported into the space for you automatically. Long Description: This is the long description that will identify this conference. It will be automatically inserted for you from the above procedure. Network: This is the Network that this conference will belong to, it may be automatically appended for you here if you follow the above procedure. Active conference: Should always be Y for YES, unless you are not relaying this conference anymore. Selected Nodes: This is where you will select the HUB or Node that will belong to this Network, when you press Enter key on this option, when you are first defining this conference, you will get an error message that says: "Before selecting Nodes, you must save this definition first". Go ahead and complete the rest of the settings here and leave this alone then save your settings and then come back here to select the HUB or Node in this option. You must save your settings first before you can select this option. When you come back here and highlight that option and press enter, all your defined HUB or Nodes will pop up for you to select which of them this Conference will belong to. You must do this if you want your mails to get imported and exported out of your board. Passthru Area: This is to specify if message in this conference will be imported to your board, in most cases it should be N for NO unless you are a HUB and just feeding this conference to another Node calling you and you are not importing this particular echo area into your own board. Wildcat! BBS Conference: The default is 0 here, but you cannot use 0 because this is your "Private E-Mail" conference in Wildcat! and you will get an error message from Wildmail, so pressing F2 function key on this option will pop-up your conference listings as defined in Wildcat! thru Makewild (as seen below on the right hand corner) for you to select the conference you will match with this area. You will highlight desire conference and press Enter key to accept this conference and save it in Wildmail. Ctrl line processing: This should normally be set to Hidden. Restrict Importation: This should also be set to N for NO. Use domain in MSGID: This should also be set to N for NO. Extract Private Mail: If Wildmail should extract any Private Mail it found in this conference, this is your option, but because this is an echomail conference and sometimes Private Mail is not allowed, then it will be set to N for NO. I set mine to Y for YES in case any Private Mail comes to my board even though I do not allow it in echomail areas. It does not hurt to leave it at Y for YES. Please Use your own discretion. Extract File Attaches: Since File attachment is not allowed in echomail conference, this has been set to N for NO. Notify User of New mail: Of course you want this to be Y for YES. Add nodes to SEEN-BY:'s line: Wildmail will take care of this, leave alone. Origin Address: This is your address that you will be using for this Network, the default is always your Primary address but you can change it if this conference belongs to one of your other Private Network AKA address. Pressing enter key on this option will pop-up all your defined addresses and you can select the one appropriate for this conference from the list. Origin Line: This is your origin line that you will use for this conference. Pressing enter key on this option will pop-up all your defined origin lines and you can select the one appropriate for this conference from the list. Grunged Message Options: Please leave this at Delete Messages, and leave all the other options underneath it the way they are. AreaRequest Options: Leave this alone unless you are a HUB and you have AreaRequest defined previously. Leave everything there and under it alone. Area Request Flags: Should just be left alone, relates to the settings above. For specific details and information about all the above option settings, please refer to your Wildmail Documentation/Manual, but the above settings should work fine for everyone. it works for me here. Now, after all the above settings press F10 function key to save your conference Area definition to create more. You will need to create and match each area for all the conference you will carry, repeating the same process for all areas as described above. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

You can also press INS key from this menu screen to add, create or define your own Network if you belong to other Private Network apart from FidoNet. I will show you how to create or add your own Private Network later in this setup. All the Network you will belong must be define and added to Wildmail database from this screen before you can have the conferences available for echoing. Since Wildmail already defined FidoNet Network for us when we first initially installed it, we shall press and enter on the FIDONET_NA to see all the characteristics of this Network as seen on the next screen.

If you do not yet belong to any other Private Network, then you should not be concerned with this setup here, but when you do need it, it's here for you. When you are in the "FTSC Network Definitions" menu under Network Manager, and press INS key to add, define or create a Network, you will get a blank menu that looks like the above for you to input the information of this Network. Network Name: The short name you will call this Network, e.g. AFRONET Description: The full description name to identify this Network as seen above. Domain Name: If this is Network has a domain name in Internet, if it does not or you don't know it, just leave it blank, no problem. Originating Node: This is where you will specify if the Network originates from your board to other boards. If you are the creator of this Network and everyone on this Network pickup the mails from you then it may be Y for YES, but generally is N for NO if you are picking-up the Network from another HUB. You do not need to worry about "AreaRequest Options" unless you are going to be serving as a HUB for this Network also, but the sample is above, it does not hurt to leave them the way they are. All the other options should remain the way you see them above, but do not forget to substitute your own addresses and origin line and your HUB address for your respective Networks. Note: If you belong to a Private Network apart from FidoNet, you must add the Network here before you can select their respective conferences to be added to Wildmail database or to be define for echoing on your board. You will also need to add this Network to your "Echo List Management" which we shall discuss in the screens to come, just remember. That's how you add, define or create a Private Network if you need to use it, and when you finished and saved your settings, the new Network should be added to your setup as seen on the next screen. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

As seen above, the listed Networks were automatically created for us when we installed Wildmail. The FIDONET.NA and FIDONET.NO is the file that lists all of Fidonet International Network conferences echo tagnames and their respective descriptions, the files are both ordinary Ascii text files located in C:\WM40\ECHOLIST directory and can be viewed by your favorite text editor and can also be printed for handy reference. OCRNET.NA is the echoname listings like above but for the Wildmail authors specific Network, if you don't need it, you can safely delete it from the listings, but leaving it will not do you any harm, you never know when you will be needing it. If you highlight FIDONET_NA and press enter key, you will get the next screen to show you the characteristics and settings for FIDONET_NA. You do not need to do anything here but just make sure the settings are the same as seen on that screen, if they are not then change them, but they should be because Wildmail installed this as default for us. Remember we created a Private Network called AFRONET in our previous screens? and I told you that we must also add this Network to the Echo List definitions? Well in the next two screens, you will see the procedures in adding this Network to the Echo List Definitions. Now press INS key to add or define this AFRONET Network to the Echo List and you should get the screen below to define it. 旼컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴컴커 � WMCONFIG! v4.10 WILDMAIL!

And make sure you have also copied the file that contains the echoname lists to the directory named C:\WM40\ECHOLIST under your Wildmail directory, this directory should already have been created for you when you installed it initially, the echolist filename for this AFRONET in this case is called AFRONET.NA, yours may be called ALINET.LST, ITCNET.NA, CATNET.LST etc the name does not matter just make sure you specify the right filename. When you press INS key from the "Echo List Definitions" menu screen, you will get a blank screen like the above for you to input all the informations for this Network you want to add to the Echo List Definitions. When you highlight the "Network Name:" as seen above and press enter key, you will get a pop-up screen from "FTSC Network Definitions" that you have defined earlier for you to select the Network you want to add to this Echo List Definitions, just highlight the appropriate one and press enter key to accept it and it will be imported/inserted into the Network name for you automatically. Change all the other settings to match the settings above but make sure you enter the correct filename that contains the echolist tagname for this Network in the settings that says: "Import ASCII text file name: C:\WM40\ECHOLIST\AFRONET.NA" replace the filename AFRONET.NA with the name of your Private Network echolist filename, and make sure you have also copied this file to the above directory named C:\WM40\ECHOLIST. After all the options settings has been entered, press F10 to save the settings and your final screens after adding the AFRONET Network should look like the screen below.

As you can see that the AFRONET Network has been added to the Echo List Definitions. This will conclude our setups for Wildmail. I hope I have helped you enough. To test Wildmail, change to C:\WM40 and type WM SCAN TOSS NETMAIL (all on the same command line) and if you did not get any error message, then your setup is fine. If you get any error, please go thru your setup procedure again to see what you have done wrong. Wildmail must be run from it's own directory, i.e. C:\WM40. You need at least the Evaluation Key for Wildmail to work. Please call Integrated Solutions BBS to download your 30-days Evaluation Key. Note: Don't forget to go thru this setup again to change your Node address when you actually get your own FidoNet address from your area NC, and when you actually know your HUB address and informations. SUMMARY or CONCLUSION ===================== In conclusion or summary following ins the necessary steps and procedures to add a HUB/Node, New Private Networks or Echomails message conferences from your HUB or Node to your Wildmail setup and Wildcat! BBS: 1. Create the necessary each echomail conferences in your Wildcat! BBS by means of Makewild. Each conference must be created for each echomail conference you wish to offer or echo on your board. 2. Define Node info for the HUB/Node by means of Node Definition in Node Address Management. (a) Select Network Members for this HUB/Node. (b) Make this HUB/Node Active. (c) Select the appropriate conferences for this HUB/Node. 3. Create or Define your Conferences in Wildmail Database by means of Conference Area Management. (a) Each conference you want to echo must be define here and must be matched with the appropriate conference defined in Wildcat! BBS. (a) Make sure the Echo TagName is spelled correctly. (b) Make the conferences Active. (c) Select the HUB/Node for this conferences. (d) Select and match the right Wildcat! BBS conference defined earlier in makewild with this conferences in Wildmail setup. (e) Select your correct and appropriate Node address and origin line for this conferences. AREAFIX NETMAIL MESSAGE INFORMATION =================================== After you have obtained your Node address and you have configure your Mail tosser e.g. Wildmail, Hypermail!, GoMail, Interecho, you will need to found out from your NC who will be your HUB, as stated in the "Frequently asked Questions and Answers". Then you will need to obtain an AREAFIX Password from the HUB, then you will have to send a Netmail to AREAFIX to turn ON or OFF the echos that you will want. The procedures are analyzed in the README.TXT and you should seek more help from your HUB if you need it, but I think I have tried my best to cover the whole procedures needed to request your echos thru AREAFIX from your HUB. Your HUB will instruct you when to send the AREAFIX message to him. The setup is not too bad right? God Bless. Praise be to Allah. -------- end --------
