Hi All,

I have what could be a stupid question, is there a way to post a message to a Mystic BBS message area with a utility. I'm (not yeet) asking for how, just asking if it's possible. I have a door usage program that outputs a plain ascii file and I'd like to insert it into a message so people could see the stats if they select that message base in the offline mail packet.



... It is bad luck to be superstitious.

Yes, you can auto post messages from a text file with the PostTextFiles option in mutil.

Yep, there's a function in MUTIL that will do this for you :)
