Re: [airmail2000] modules packet client connect to:

This is dangerous, but it will work.

Open "Airmail.INI" in a text editor. (...and be SURE to save it as
plain text when you're done!) (The INI file is in the same folder
where the program itself resides.)

First, before anything else, save it back with a new name. I use
"AirmailBAK.INI" for backup. Only a file named "Airmail.INI"
will correctly launch Airmail...

Scroll down, about 2/3 of the way last time I did this if I recall
right, and you'll find a section that looks like this:

As you can see, I have a lot of cleaning up to do
myself.

Delete the lines you want. "Close up" the final
list, eliminating any "empty" Connect To XX
statements.

Save the file as text.

THIS IS DANGEROUS!! BE VERY CAREFUL, AND
DON'T CHANGE ANYTHING YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT IT IS.

click Packet Client and get connect to. I have a lot of old addresses I
would like to get rid of but don't see a list where I can add and delete old
call signs and connection paths. Does someone know how.

Oh... And re-number the lines in order with no gaps. Frankly, I don't know if that's necessary, but it seems reasonable to do anyway to keep it orderly. - 73...
