INTRODUCTION
WMail is a brand new Echomail management program, for PC-based
system using mailers like Opus and BinkleyTerm, or FrontDoor and
D'Bridge.
Its main characteristics:
- supports Fido compatible message base
- supports QuickBBS compatible message base
- contains Pack function, for EchoMail and NetMail
- includes Areafix function
- point management, through FakeNet or with 4-dimension address
both in FrontDoor and BinkleyTerm modality
- creates EchoMail traffic statistics every week/month/year
- operates in FrontDoor manner or as Binkley and Opus
- windows (not Windows :-) ) graphic interface
- can have both Fido and QuickBBS areas formats in the same
areas file
- supports PassThru areas
- supports AKAs and ZoneGates
~~~~~~~~
This user manual relies on the knowledge of the basic functioning
concepts of a Bbs or a Point: for these things, you should read
the documentation included in the mailers used for EchoMail
transmission and in the Bbs management programs.
THANKS
I want to thank all Beta-Testers, who helped me very much in the
development of WMail: Ugo Uggetti, Andrea Mennini, Massimo
Gentilini, Marco Maccaferri, Cesare Dieni, Luca Leone, Roberto
Piola, Alberto Enna, Gianfranco Lanzilli, Mario Battacchi,
Francois Thunus.
Special thanks are due to these people:
- Franco Schinco, victim of the first WMail trials on his
message base and author of this documentation.
- Franco Carcillo, who encouraged me very strongly to complete
the work.
- Maurizio Codogno, who wrote the coding algorithm for the
registration key and translated in English this documentation.
- Luca Leone, who gave me all kinds of technical infos about
FrontDoor functioning.

LICENSE AGREEMENT
WMail is neither Public Domain software nor Freeware: it is
distributes as Shareware. So, after a trial period, the user is
asked to register his/her copy sending the due amount of
money to the author.
Note that this version of WMail is not limited in lifetime: it
will continue to work even without registration. Nevertheless,
some secondary functions are only accessible after registering
and receiving one key.
To register WMail it is necessary fill in and send to the
following address the form you can find in the distribution
archive; an amount of money is also required, to be sent through
a postal money order to the author.
The registration key is valid for this and all future versions of
WMail; two types of registration are possible, see registration
form for any detail.
Everyone can redistribute WMail, provided that the original
archive is not changed in any way and no amount of money is
required. In no circumstance at all WMail can be modified without
author's permission; it is prohibited too to include this
program, whole or in part, in other software. It is expressly
forbidden distribute the personal registration key to other
people.
WMail can be used in commercial organizations only after regular
registration.
This license is considered accepted if the program is used: its
violation will involve the withdrawal of the registration key and
the rights to use the program.
No WMail source, of whichever of its version, will be ever
released.
In no case the author shall be liable for data loss or whatever
relative to WMail use; i.e., no guarantee at all is given about
program functioning, except that it occupies disk space.
Everyone who uses WMail and finds any functioning problem is
kindly asked to report them at Fidonet address 2:334/100.2 : time
permitting, everyone will be answered.

CONFIGURATION
WMail gets the informations needed to know system configuration
from a file called WMAIL.PRM, located in the directory pointed by
the WMAIL system variable. This file is created from
WMSETUP.EXE .
Areas definition is taken from AREAS.PRM, used by WEdit
1.3 or greater too. WmSetup & WMail will look for AREAS.PRM in
the directory pointed by the WMAIL system variable; if not found,
il will be searched in the WEDIT system variable.
Nodes definition is taken from NODES.PRM.
WMSETUP.EXE
Syntax : WMSETUP [switches]
? : Show a help screen.
-Afile : Use file 'file' as areas file instead of
AREAS.PRM.
-Nfile : Use file 'file' as nodes file instead of
NODES.PRM
-Pfile : Use file 'file' as configuration file
instead of WMAIL.PRM
READAREAS file : Import textual file 'file' into binary
areas configuration (AREAS.PRM).
WRITEAREAS file: Export binary areas configuration
(AREAS.PRM) to textual file 'file'.

phase are created. It also specifies the path in which .OUT
files are put, which will be further elaborated by PACK
function, if WMail is configured in BinkleyTerm modality.
If, on the contrary, it is configured in FrontDoor modality,
it is best to use a ramdisk: in this way execution time is
greatly reduced. Final backslash can be omitted.

that .OUT files are created for further
elaboration with PACK), this field must remain
blank.
Final backslash can be omitted.

specified, these messages will be deleted during Import
phase. Final backslash can be omitted.
* Directory - BadEcho
Specifies the path in which messages with bad data, relative

Specifies the path in which WMail searches for packers and
unpackers. Final backslash can be omitted.
* Directory - Stats
Specifies the path in which WMail creates statistics files.

USE OF WMAIL
The following is a description of all switches allowed in the
various functions.
-- IMPORT
WMail will automatically choose the unpacker to be used for the
various ARCmail packets.
Unpackers *must* be found in the Global - Directory - Packer path
set in WMSETUP.EXE .
Syntax : WMAIL IMPORT [switches]
-Afile : Use file 'file' as areas file instead of
AREAS.PRM.
-D : Deletes messages without text part.
-E : Exports messages to all other nodes.
-Ffile : Create file `file' with the name of the
areas in which messages came.
-I : Import from BadEcho
-Nfile : Use file 'file' as nodes file instead of
NODES.PRM.
-Pfile : Use file 'file' as configuration file
instead of WMAIL.PRM
-Q : Quiet mode; minimizes output information
to video.
-S : Sets up security.
If some area is in Quickbbs format, it is advisable to use -E
switch to speed Export procedure.

ROUTING
Routing determines the kind of packets prepared from WMail
during PACK phase, and nodes to which they will be sent. Note
that a wrong routing procedure can cause calls not scheduled by
mailer; be therefore careful about the structure of routing file
and mailer events.
Global routing commands are those which appear before every
SCHEDULE declaration in route file. These are always used, so it
is possible to specify situations identical for each event.
Local routing commands are those which appear between two
SCHEDULE declaration in route file. WMail determines which
`block' of commands is to be used, by searching for the schedule
corresponding to the letter specified with -S switch in command
line. If no letter is specified, WMail search by default `@'
schedule.
Every line starting with a semicolon is considered a comment.
Addresses specified in routing file can be written in short form,
by using declaration ALL. To list several systems in a net, it is
sufficient to specify net number for the first declared node.
Routing language is completely case insensitive: SEND, send, and
SenD are considered the same command.
To preserve compatibility with FrontDoor, any character after '!'
is ignored.
-- Default routing
WMail has some default rules for routing; they will be used if no
other rule is specified for a particular message. Some of default
rules cannot be substituted by routing commands.
■ Messages with crash, direct and hold flags set will
not be routed towards other nodes. In Binkley modality they
will never be packed as ARCmail; they will be exported as
*.?UT packets.
■ Only normal messages, with no crash, direct and hold flags,
are packed as ARCmail and respect routing rules. In Binkley
modality *.?LO attack files are created.
■ In binkley modality orphan ARCmail packets are always sent to
destination node.
■ Messages with received, orphan, lock or sent flags are always
ignored by WMail.
■ In FrontDoor modality, file attacks, file requests and
IMMediate messages are ignored by WMail.
Pag. 24
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
-- System definitions
It is possible to define a system, by putting a SEND-TO command
in the global section of the routing file, but this is not always
suitable. SEND-TO, POLL and the list SEND-LIST after a schedule
command are the only ways to declare a system to exchange mail.
Messages to nodes non present in these declaration are ignored.
-- Routing commands
WMail routing can be done in two different ways:
* In FrontDoor compatibility, by using the same routing file and
by creating a file attack message for packed mail. This is the
default. Note that to preserve compatibility, user should avoid
to use any verb.
* In Binkley compatibility, by using extended commands in
routing file, and by creating files NNNNnnnn.?LO in case of
file attach, NNNNnnnn.?UT for unpacked packets and
NNNNnnnn.REQ for file requests. Packets for zone other than
the default one, will be put in directory outbound.zzz, where
'outbound' is outgoing packets directory, and zzz is the hex
destination zone number (E.g. If you are in zone 2 and your
outbound subdirectory is C:\Outbound, packets for zone 39 will
be put in C:\Outbound.027).
In the following commands, VERB declarations are optional and
useful for the operations in Binkley modality, and include these
commands:
Verb Extension of created files
---- --------------------------
NORMAL FLO or OUT
CRASH CLO or CUT
HOLD HLO or HUT
DIRECT DLO or DUT
EXPRESS CUT
For the meaning of these declarations, please refer to
BinkleyTerm manual, as they are used by this mailer.
In Binkley compatibility, it is possible to tell WMail NOT to
pack outbound mail, by putting -N switch in the command line.
In the following, the routing file commands are presented:
SCHEDULE <TAG> [VERB] [SEND-LIST]
Defines the start of a command block. All commands following a
schedule declaration are considered in the same block, until
another schedule declaration or the end of file.
TAG is an alphanumeric character. Each character can be used in
Pag. 25
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
at most a tag.
Optional parameter VERB, used in Binkley modality, specifies the
kind of file .?LO or .?UT which will be created for nodes
specified in SEND-LIST.
Optional parameter SEND-LIST contains systems concerned by
schedule.
SEND-TO [VERB] <SEND-LIST>
Defines the systems listed in SEND-LIST which receive mail in the
way specified by VERB. VERB and SEND-LIST options are similar to
those in SCHEDULE declaration.
HOLD <LIST>
Keep mail for specified systems. It is the equivalent of the
command SEND-TO HOLD <SEND-LIST>. Hold mail is not sent, unless
the receiving node makes a call.
UNHOLD <LIST>
The opposite of HOLD. It is useful in case of global declaration
in HOLD command, if one or mode nodes should be excluded by the
effect of the command.
ROUTE-TO [VERB] <TARGET> <LIST>
Route mail (except file attach messages) for nodes specifies in
LIST to node specified in TARGET. In Binkley modality, VERB sets
the way in which mail must be created for TARGET node.
NO-ROUTE <LIST>
Sends directly mail to nodes specified. This command can be used
to negate effect of ROUTE-TO to one or more nodes, in case of
global declarations.
ROUTE-FILES [VERB] <TARGET> <LIST>
Routes file attach messages (but not the standard mail) of nodes
specified in LIST to node specified in TARGET. Destination node
must know of it in order for file attach to work; it is therefore
necessary to ask that node's Sysop if he or she lets files be
routed through his/her system.
POLL [VERB] <LIST>
Pag. 26
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
Forces mailer to call systems specified even if no other mail
addressed to them is present. This command, used in FrontDoor
modality, is equivalent to SEND-TO, as it is the mailer who calls
concerned nodes, while if used in Binkley modality fake files are
created, according to VERB parameter:
Verb Fake POLL file
---- --------------
NORMAL NNNNnnnn.OUT
CRASH NNNNnnnn.CUT
HOLD NNNNnnnn.HUT
DIRECT NNNNnnnn
EXPRESS NNNNnnnn.CUT
N.B. In Binkley modality it is necessary that files present in
LIST don't contain global declarations (ALL or *).
EXCEPT <LIST>
Specifies exceptions to the list of nodes, in the above commands.
Multiple EXCEPT lines are supported. EXCEPT statements always
follow a command and can be put either after this command or in a
new line. E.g."ROUTE-TO 334/100 * EXCEPT 334/101"
N.B.: The following commands are useful only in Binkley modality:
-----------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGE <TO-VERB> <LIST>
Changes the way in which packets are sent, by modifying
extensions of .?LO and .?UT files for nodes present in LIST, on
the basis of TO-VERB parameter.
For example, CHANGE HOLD 1/1 would have the following effect:
00010001.?LO --> 00010001.HLO
00010001.?UT --> 00010001.HUT
LEAVE <LIST>
LEAVE command makes unavailable for mailers the packets already
created for nodes present in LIST, by changing their extension.
This is useful to avoid sending of mail to a calling node during
some events. This command is similar to FrontDoor's DENY, which
is however useless with WMail, as it is managed by mailer. Files
are renamed in this way:
NNNNnnnn.?UT --> NNNNnnnn.N?T
NNNNnnnn.?LO --> NNNNnnnn.N?O
UNLEAVE <LIST>
Pag. 27
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
UNLEAVE command renames again packets whose name was changed by
LEAVE command, restoring the original extension. Files are
renamed in this way:
NNNNnnnn.N?T --> NNNNnnnn ?UT
NNNNnnnn.N?O --> NNNNnnnn ?LO
-- Specifications for node lists
It is possible to use a number of different formats to specify a
list of systems in routing commands:
ALL All systems.
2:ALL All systems in zone 2.
2:334/ALL All systems in zone 2, net 334.
2:334/1 101 102 2:334/1 2:334/101 and 2:334/102.
.1 .2 .3 .4 .5 Own points 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
NOTE: Instead of ALL it can be used a star `*'.
To preserve compatibility with FrontDoor 2.x the use of `*'
is strictly necessary.
-- Note about points
Points from other systems are always treated as their boss.
Systems can send mail only to other nodes and to its own points.
-- Routing philosophy
* Commands are interpreted sequentially, so that any statement
can be modified by the next ones. E.g.:
SEND-TO DIRECT 334/100
SEND-TO CRASH 334/100
Messages are sent to 334/100 as CRASH. In its internal reasoning
WMail first flags messages for 334/100 as DIRECT, and then as
CRASH.
* When you use ROUTE-TO and ROUTE-FILES commands, remember to
exclude all nodes which are not to be routed, as they have
effect in any position of Global and Local routing. E.g.:
ROUTE-TO 334/100 332/400
SEND-TO CRASH 332/400
The second statement has no effect, as after first line all
Pag. 28
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
messages addressed 332/400 are considered for 334/100.
ROUTE-TO 334/100 * EXCEPT 332/400
SEND-TO DIRECT 332/400
NO-ROUTE 332/400
ROUTE-TO 334/100 *
In these two cases messages will not be routed to 332/400.
-- Examples
* Example 1: a Binkley system with points (fakenet is 22402)
SCHEDULE @ NORMAL ALL ; This schedule looks at all
; nodes and sends by default
; messages as NORMAL
SEND-TO HOLD 22402/* 332/305
SEND-TO CRASH 332/309 334/100
ROUTE-TO DIRECT 332/404 *
EXCEPT 334/100 332/309 332/305 22402/*
All message will be routed to 332/404 except for specified
nodes. Messages for points and for 332/305 will be flagged as
HOLD. Messages for 332/309 and 334/100 will be flagged as
CRASH.
* Example 2: a FrontDoor system with 4 dimensions points
ROUTE-TO 2:334/0 2:* ; Send all zone 2 messages to 2:334/0
; except for points messages
ROUTE-TO 2:33/999 * ; Send all other zones messages to
; 2:33/999
HOLD * ; Holds all messages
SCHEDULE A 334/101 ; Look only at messages for 334/101
NO-ROUTE 334/101 ; Do not route messages for 334/101
POLL 334/101 ; but call the system everyday.
SCHEDULE B 2:* ; Look at all messages
UNHOLD 2:33/999 ; Unhold messages for 2:33/999
DENY 334/100.* ; Prevent points from picking up mail
* Example 3: a Binkley point system (created by WMSetup)
SCHEDULE @ DIRECT *
ROUTE-TO DIRECT 2:334/100 *
1st line is used to qualify system to send mail everywhere
2nd line is used to send all netmail to boss system

HOW AREAFIX WORKS
The automatic management of areas file is accomplished by means
of NetMail messages sent to "Areafix"; in the message subject it
must be put the password assigned to the node which sent the
message. The message text must contain the list of areas, one
for each line and starting in column 1, to be added or deleted.
The character `-' (minus) before the area tag means that
areas should be deleted. Message text ends with a line containing
a triple dash `---'.
For ex.
From : Silvan Calarco of 2:334/100.2
To : Areafix of 2:334/100.0
Subj : My_Password
________________________________________________________________
MSD_HARD.ITA
-CLANG.ITA
---
The previous message instruct WMail to add to Silvan Calarco's
node, to which password `My_password' was assigned, area
MSD_HARD.ITA, while area CLANG.ITA will be deleted.
If in subject there is a `-L' after the password (separated by a
blank), WMail will send to the node the list of EchoMail areas
for which adding is allowed. If -Q is used instead, areas list
will be sent as a message.
If in subject there is a `-R' a rescan of added areas will be
done, so that old messages will be forwarded too.
Note that rescan will not work for QuickBBS areas, if they have
already been scanned for export.

WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
OTHER FUNCTIONS
-- Return receipts
WMail is able to honor return receipt requests if desired (see
CONFIGURATION chapter). Receipt messages will be created during
any netmail scan; WMail will check either for RRQ bit in message
header and for extended flag RRQ; besides receipts will not be
created in the case that messages have already been replied to.
-- Security
*Packets with a password different than the one specified in
setup will not be imported and will be renamed as
'BAD_PKT.nnn' if switch -S is set in import.
*Messages from PKTs with different destination from the
addresses specified as primary or AKAs will be imported in
Badecho directory. To force WMail ti import wrong addressed
packets, it is necessary to specify in WMSETUP, as an AKA, the
address reported in log file as 'Wrong address'.
*EchoMail messages coming from nodes not linked to the
interested area, will be put in Badecho area if switch -S
is set in import.
*To import messages from BadEcho area switch -I must be
specified on command line; during this phase, only messages
coming from nodes linked to the interested area will be
moved.
-- New areas creation
WMail is able to automatically create new areas, if desired (see
CONFIGURATION chapter), during import and areafix phases. Only
nodes specified as 'Creating nodes' in setup are allowed to do
this. New areas will be created with an areafix level of 200.
Pag. 31
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
TECHNICAL NOTES
* PKT with extended header
WMail generates type 2+ PKTs, with extended header, according
to standard proposed in FSC-0039 and FSC-0048. In the new header
structure, zone provenance and destination of PKT and origin
and destination point are included. Due to compatibility
problems with these FSCs WMail creates packet headers according
to FSC-0048, and imports packets according to FSC-0039.
* Product Code
The present WMail product code is 0x77 (119 dec).
* Areas
The largest number of areas that WMail can manage is 1000.
* New Areas
The largest number of new areas that can be created in one
session is about 50.
* Nodes
The largest number of nodes managed by WMail is 8192.
* Dupes
The largest number of dupes managed by WMail per area is 1000.
* MSGID
WMail inserts MSGID in messages which lack of it.
* PID and Tear-line
In the tear-line WMail will add after its identificative "WMail
2.3" the number of registration key; if tear-line is not
WMail's, it will put at the start of the message and hidden
with a ^A a line of Product Information (PID) with the same
informations.
* Illegal registration keys
WMail will not import messages whose tear-line or PID contains a
key similar to the one specified in WMAIL.PRM. It is therefore
Pag. 32
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
impossible to use key assigned to other copies.
* Attack messages
In attach messages for ARCmail, WMail inserts DIR and TFS
extended flags, so that FrontDoor and compatible mailers
can better handle them.
* Directory creation
WMail will automatically create any new outbound directory it
will need for export and pack functions; such are zone
directories (e.g. OUTBOUND.05F) and point directories (e.g.
014C0192.PNT).
* Memory occupation
Thanks to its capability to swap code on disk or EMS during
external programs (packer and unpacker) execution, WMail can run
in about 280 Kb. Overlay file is loaded in EMS, if it
is present.
* ARCMail processing order
To process ARCmail and PKTs Dos file date is used to determine
which packet is to be imported first.
* Maximum message length
The maximum length of a message is virtually infinite: messages
longer than available memory are temporary swapped to disk.
* Execution errors
In case of run-time error, WMail will create a file WMAILERR.LOG
in which date, time and kind of the error are reported.
* Limitations in unregistered copies
If WMail is used without a registration key, Areafix function,
weekly/monthly statistics, nodelist use, new areas creation and
Return Receipt messages will not be operative. Yearly statistics
will work.
* Limitations in point registered copies
If WMail is used with a point registration key, only Areafix
function will not be operative. Besides, a point key will not
Pag. 33
WMail 2.3 - Copyright 1990-92 Silvan Calarco 12/28/92
work with a BBS address.
* QuickBBS files sharing
WMail will lock message base file access during Import phase.
* ARCmail naming convention
WMail 2.3 does no more create P*.* ARCmail files. In
FrontDoor modality a CRC-32 of the two complete addresses
(origin and destination) will be the name of the packets;
in BinkleyTerm modality any name will be calculated by
considering the first AKA of the interested zone.
* Video mode
WMail and WMSetup will keep any text video mode by adapting the
size of their windows to the current number of video lines.
* Technical support
An ECHO conference on node 2:334/100.0 is activated, with tag
WMAIL.334 and dedicated to W* products; to hook it, please
contact SysOp of 2:334/100.0
