I'm having trouble with Souper95. It does email OK, but the news upload has
a problem. When I upload a post Souper95 returns an error "Bad command or
file name" and no post goes out. Downloading news works flawlessly though.
Using Souper for Windows everything goes OK, so I believe Souper95 is the
problem. Unfortunately I use a batch file to do my soup packets. Souper
for Windows spawns off, the batch file goes on it's merry way and tries to
do things before Souper for Windows is through with it's part.
So, 2 problems:
1. Why does Souper95 error out when I upload my news posts?
and/or
2. How can I get Souper for Windows to behave and not return control
to my batch file until it is done?
I enclose my batch file in hopes there's an easy solution:
set packet=c:\tcpip\soup\upload.zip
SET HOME=c:\TCPIP\SOUP
set nntpserver=news.concentric.net
set nntp=news.concentric.net
set smtp=smtp.concentric.net
set pop3=pop3.concentric.net
set mail=mail.concentric.net
c:
cd\tcpip\soup
if exist %packet% pkunzip -o %packet% yarn
if exist %packet% souper -s pop3.concentric.net zacketh <password>
if exist %packet% pause
if exist %packet% del %packet%
souper95 pop3.concentric.net zacketh <password>
cd yarn
pkzip -m c:\tcpip\yarn\soup_z.zip areas *.msg
cd\tcpip\yarn
expire -o
