Would someone post there maint.ini file, I'm have some problems getting mine to work correctly.
In my case mutil.ini is the maint.ini ;)
; MUTIL configuration file New Config for Mystic Pi BBS bcw142.zapto.org
; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
;
; MUTIL is an automated maintainance and utility program driven by
; configuration files used to perform various tasks upon execution.
;
; The syntax to execute MUTIL is: MUTIL <configuration file>. If no
; configuration file is supplied, then the program will look for mutil.ini
; in the same directory. A second parameter -NOSCREEN can be used to turn
; off screen updates but the configuration file parameter MUST be supplied
; ex: mutil mutil.ini -NOSCREEN
;
; Many different configuration files can exist to perform any series of
; tasks supported by MUTIL, or a single configuration can be maintained that
; does everything. The minimum requirement is the General header with a
; task enabled, and then the specific header for that task that defines its
; options.
;
; Current abilities (enabled/disabled in the General header below):
;
; - Export Binkley-style FLO echomail/netmail
; - Import Binkley-style FLO echomail/netmail
; - Import Message Bases (by datafile analysis)
; - Import FIDONET.NA into Message bases
; - Import FILEBONE.NA into File bases
; - Export FILEBONE.NA from File bases
; - Export AREAS.BBSfrom Message Bases
; - Export Golded Areas Configuration from Message Bases
; - Mass upload files to all file bases (with FILE_ID.DIZ import and the
; ability to exclude files by filemask)
; - Generate Top 1 up to 99 Callers, Posters, Downloaders, Uploaders, PCR
; Completely configurable output by using template files
; - Import FILES.BBS into file bases
; - Generate all files listing
; - Purge Message bases (by age and max messages)
; - Pack and renumber message bases
; - Post text files to message bases
; - Merge nodelists into Mystic format
; - Toss TIC+files into BBS and to subscribed downlinks
; - Pack and check integrity of file base listings
; - Sort file base listings
; - Perform message base echomail reply linking
; - Purge user database marking inactive users for deletion
; - Pack user database and remove private messages of deleted users
; - Automatically hatch a list of files to FDN
;
; The concept here is that you can create your own custom command lines to
; complete any number of tasks. For example, you could create msgmaint.ini
; which executes message base purge, packing, and reply linking. Then you
; can simply execute "mutil msgmaint" to kick it off.
