Hey

I've been working on QWK mail support today, got downloading implemented,
and will work on uploading another day (or maybe later today).

There are some additions to your bbs.ini and message base ini files (I implemented that a while ago so you can safely work on adding them in if
you want)

The most important one is the QWK Conference for each message base... So
for example:

[General]
Read Sec Level = 10
Write Sec Level = 10
Path = /home/andrew/MagickaBBS/msgs/general
Type = Local
QWK Name = GENERAL
QWK Conference = 100

Is what my general area looks like in the localmail.ini

You'll have to add a message conference number to every message base,
otherwise it won't be available for qwk download.

The other one is the BBS location, it's used in the CONTROL.DAT, but it
isn't required, if it's not there, your BBS will be from "Somewhere, The
World"

BBS Location = Toowoomba, QLD

is mine and it comes under the [main] section.

At present this is only very basic QWK support, no QWK-E yet.

Tweaking my ini files so QWK will work when it's available.

Is that the main section in bbs.ini, or the main section in each of the
message board ini files?

Thanks!
