• MTAFile snafu...

    Hi All,

    So, I'm not sure how close people have been watching the bot posts that are generated by my program MTAFile. Evidently, there is (was) a slight issue
    with it.

    One of my Fidonet file uplinks, who is using TickIt (I think), is sending
    .tic files without the size verb in them. I'm not sure if this is an issue
    with TickIt, or possibly with his setup.

    As I was using this field as a check for duplicate files, it caused a lot of files to not be listed in the reports. That check has been removed, but now there are a bunch of files that are listed, with a size of '0'.

    I'll contact him, and see if there is something amiss on his end.
