modules packet client connect to:   Message List

Re: [airmail2000] modules packet client connect to:


I, too, would like to find a solution to this problem. The below
example does not work with my recent version of Airmail, (3.4.034). I find
no "Airmail.ini" file, but I do have a configuration file named
"airmail".... no extension. Although it had configuration settings in
it, it did not have anything like the list of "Connect To" callsigns that
your example below shows. Anyone else have a go at this problem?
