I know about how to get into the stuff in the out box and reply packet to edit or delete it. What I am trying to do is forward an echo message to my friend's private email on the BBS. When I look in the out box reply packet, it shows only one message being forwarded. After the BBS unpacks it, it briefly shows duplicate messages were uploaded even though there was only one in the reply packet. As an experiment, I forwarded one back to myself last night. Again, one message in the reply packet, but duplicates unpacked and verified on the BBS. My BBS is Tenforward in Port Angeles. They run the newest Wildcat! software, and I have the newest Qmpro OLX, so they should be compatible. Any further thoughts?

Run Qmodem. ALT-J and select a key combination of your choice. LT-> For what reason do you do it this way instead of setting it up as a extern -> protocol? Have you tried to set it up as a external protocol? For Qmodem this was the best way I found to use HSlink and Bimodem since Qmodem always stops and asks for a filename if uploading. Since you still have to hit a key to start the download (PgDn), why not different key if the result is effective. Now with QmPro, that's a different story. Since it has autostart, you can successfully add it as an external protocol. David --- QMPro 1.53 Misspelled? Impossible.
