  • QWK Readers for OS/2

    From ACMEBBS@21:4/10 to All on Saturday, May 14, 2022 00:33:00
    Have followed the steps to setup QWK networking with Mystic & have
    attempted to set up Telegard/Renegade under OS/2-ArcaOS. No matter what
    the software is...the software does not see the QWK packets I've
    downloaded. On the other hand...have no problem with reading the same
    packets with Bluewave/Multimail.

    Thank you!

    Are you trying to do QWK networking with Telegard? If so, IIRC, you
    will need to use a third party utility to convert QWK/REP packets to
    FTN type packets and the reverse in oder to be able to toss the
    mesasages to your jam message bases.
