    From rswindell to CVS commit on Sunday, August 02, 2020 00:23:34
    src/sbbs3 scfgsave.c 1.95 1.96
    Update of /cvsroot/sbbs/src/sbbs3
    In directory cvs:/tmp/cvs-serv14283

    Modified Files:
    scfgsave.c
    Log Message:
    Fix bug reported by WitNik (John):
    The msgbase 'status' header created with smb_open_sub() had all its fields 0-filled.
    This would cause all kinds of msgbase settings (e.g. max msgs, max age, etc.) to not propagate from their SCFG settings (for mail or sub-boards)
    to the newly-created msg base(s).
    But most importantly, it would cause the mail base to be created without the "EMail" attribute flag, causing the msgbase to be treated as a sub-board (public message area) and users could not then read their received mail.

    The root-cause was that smb_open() will zero-out the current smb.status
    value before trying to read it from the msgbase header, thus losing any
    values that were populated in there before calling smb_open(). Rather than change the behavior of the ancient smb_open() function, just restore the correct default smb.status values after calling smb_open() and before
    calling smb_create().

    Fix issue with QWKnet hub sub-board mappings when inserting new sub-boards

    The sub_t.subnum's that were being updated as message areas were being saved to msgs.ini could not be used as an index into the scfg_t.sub array at this point (the subnum would be the new index position when the msgs.ini was re-read/loaded)
    .

    This was not an issue in v3.19 because we just saved the subnum (to msgs.cnf) and
    in v3.20, we save the sub's internal code (to msgs.ini) and were using the newly
    updated sub_t.subnum to find the corresponding sub_t for that internal code. Since
    the subnum is not used now during the save process, no need to update it here (this reverses part of the commit 11e529d40bca40 from 5 years ago).

    This fixes issue #502 - thanks to the irc.synchro.netizens that reported it!

    Fix bug where file.ini min_dspace could be set to -1

    min_dspace is an *unsigned* short, so saving 65535 (the default) was converting the signed decimal representation when saving file.ini.

    Use an .ini style that indents keys and puts blank line after the root section

    A few extra bytes really helps with human readability.
