 FV> This is the "Kill" in FD.

 ml> correct...

 FV> The file, if one is attached, can be delete/sent, or
 FV> traunc/sent.

 ml> correct again...

 FV> In the case of A, the *..msg should be removed by the mailer

 ml> the question is what is "it"? the MSG or the file? some are trying to

Opps. My bad. Once the /file/ is sent. What happens to the .msg is up
to how the .msg was flagged. If "kill" was flagged, then remove the
message. If not, the make it as sent and leave it there. FWIW, I've
not seen an .msg (archmail attach) that wasn't marked as "kill" with
the Delete or Traunc sent.

 FV> If the
 FV> transfer was not a success, the msender retains the attach
 FV> message for the next attmet to send the file. At least, the
 FV> attach message should be marked by the mailer as "sent".

 ml> after the /mail bundle file/ is sent? yeah, i guess at minimum...

Yes. A little unclear by me, but you got it. :)

 FV> In the case of B and C, if the message is left on the sender's
 FV> system, the message is marked as "Sent" so that it will not be
 FV> sent again. Otherwise, it is removed.

 ml> right...

 FV> Now. That's the way I see it. I have no idea if the *.msg is
 FV> sent to the receiver, but I have seen this happen. To me, it

 ml> decent mailers will change that directory to the local inbound
 ml> directory where the file arrived into ;)

True, but then the receiver has the .msg to deal with. I'm not real
clear on the specs for this part, but my feeling is to not send the
.msg, just the arcmail file.

 FV> Here's a status (I guess that is the terminology) of a file
 FV> attach message on my system (FD) right now:

 ml> what kind of file attach? arcmail mail bundle or just some file that
 ml> is being sent to another system?

Bre packet in this case. However, for some reason, Synchronet's tosser
marks the arcmail the same. <shrug>

 FV> Local Pvt File Kill Del/sent

 FV> From right to left. Created locally, Private, Kill the *.msg,
 FV> Delete the file when successfully sent.

 FV> JMHO, Take it, leave it, argure it or drop dead. You choice.
 FV> :-)

 ml> i've had no problems other than using KS and/or TS instead of KFS
 ml> and/or TFS... that mistake has served to confuse others and create
 ml> what some seem to think is a debate... i apologise for the confusion
 ml> by my mistake and can only say to others who think everything is a
 ml> debate, get a life... they're in serious need of one if all they can
 ml> do is debate everything...

Just an attempt to clear the air a bit. I hope I didn't make it worse
and you understand that the reply was not directed at you, but to all
in the discussion. :)

Regards,
Frank
