Setup Guide Tutorial for doing Mailrun with Robocomm and Postlink with RIME (RelayNet) Network. version 1.0 Written by: Mufutau Towobola P.O. Box 860 Bronx, New York 10468 All Rights Reserved May 21st, 1995 RIME#: 5210 FidoNet: 1:278/111 Internet EMail address: sysop@sysmatic.com Systematic BBS Node 1: (718) 716-6198 Node 2: (718) 716-6341 Modems in Operation at Systematic BBS includes the following: USRobotics Dual Standard 28.8k v.Everything Practical Peripherals FXSA 14,400 Supra 28.8k VFC Zoom 28.8k VFC This setup is for Robocomm v4.2b and may work for other versions. All the samples here assumes C: drive and the appropriate directories, please replace all the drive and directory names and filenames with your appropriate setup. Below are what you should do first: 1. Create a directory named C:\ROBO on your drive and unzip the Robocomm program files into this directory. Also you should create underneath C:\ROBO directory the following directories: C:\ROBO\DOWNLOAD and C:\ROBO\UPLOAD. 2. Underneath your C:\POSTLINK directory, create an extra directory called C:\POSTLINK\BACKUP. This is the directory you will copy a backup of your received mail packets just in case your Postlink crashes, you will then just copy the files from this directory to C:\POSTLINK\WORK and re-import your mails. This process saves you from losing mails when Postlink crashes.. the enclosed RIME.BAT will do this automatically each time you make a mailrun, please edit the file for proper path and filenames. 3. Create an ascii text file called BUSY.TXT and copy it into your Robocomm directory. This file will be displayed to any caller that calls your board while Robocomm is in process of calling for your mailrun or dialing out. Sample BUSY.TXT is enclosed, please edit to suit your BBS. 4. Also copy the enclosed POSTLINK.RS file to your Robocomm directory e.g. C:\ROBO this is the Robocomm script file for connecting for RIME/Postlink Mail run with a PCBoard BBS. This file is required. 5. Copy the enclosed RIME.BAT to your C:\POSTLINK directory or wherever you want to run the event batch file from. Please edit the batch file for the proper pathnames and filenames. 6. Compare your CALLER.CFG in Postlink directory with the one I have enclosed here and amend as seen fit. Now having done all the above, change to the C:\ROBO directory and type ROBOCOMM.EXE to load Robocomm as seen in next screen.
