  • File Request question

    From RickV@VERT to All on Sat Dec 20 09:46:33 2025
    Hello everybody!

    Is there a way to do a file request to a bbs system these days with the internet, binkd, and netmail anymore. Like to old days?

    Thanks,
    RickV

    Thank you. I was really looking to find out how you send a netmail for a file request. It's been a long time since I've done that.

    Thanks,
    RickV
