    You could not see it because htick does not produce netmail attach messages when it sends files and ticks. And it does not produce them because they are not needed.

    Ask your link to stop sending you the netmail attach messages. If he/she cannot, then the easiest option is to change the link. Otherwise, you may develop a script for deleting the messages.

    There is a certain braindead TICK sending me empty netmails every day. I made carbon move rule to move those netmails to a black hole netmail area.

    Check the source at fidoconf/doc/keywords.hpt for "carbon copy" actions. There is carbondelete but i suggest to test the configuration with carbonmove at first.

    I noticed the source texi file is much smaller than the info file. If you did not compile with info support then on the installed system the info file may not be available. But you can read the source fidoconfig.info with a text viewer/editor easily.

    Regards

    I get them from a few different links. So deleting them here is the best option.

    Never thought of carbon move
