    I will I have just been too busy to test the latest changes.

    In general it works this way:

    1) Create new features
    2) Test new features
    3) Release a pre-alpha

    This year has been incredibly busy for me outside of the BBS scene so features have been slower. The latest changes I made are related to e-mail password resets and e-mail validation and I need to connect to an SMTP server to test them before I release a new build.

    I can build a prealpha and release it anyway if the community would prefer but these features are untested.

    .... Tech support is just a busy signal away

    g00r00... About a month or so ago I was requesting that you have mystic auto generate message areas and use a random Hex number when making message base names.

    Please can you add this in the next pre-alpha

    I didn't forget about you, sir!

    In the next build I changed it to fix the problem where it could create a double period that you mentioned. But I also changed how it works to allow for
    a random hex too:

    + MUTIL ImportEchoMail now has a "dos_filename" option that can be used to
    create JAM filenames in the DOS 8.3 file format. Valid options are:

    0 = Do not use 8.3 filename (uses echotag for filename)
    1 = Use shortened 8.3 filename (trimmed based on the echotag name)
    2 = Use random hex 8.3 filename

    .... If all the world is a stage, where is the audience sitting?

    Whats happend if MUTIL import two echos with similars names? For example:

    ECHOMAIL_ECHOTAG trim in ECHOMAIL
    ECHOMAIL_ECHOTAG2 trim in? ECHOMAI2?

    Thanks.

    It will add digits onto it until it finds something not in use if you are using
    the shortened name.
