Some time ago... In article <VA.000000c3.00c7ec45@trmphrst.demon.co.uk>, Nikki Locke wrote: > VA will unbatch batch.txt files as they come (you either enter the name > of the file, and the Internet service to which to import it in a > dialog, or you write a one-line DLL call, and start the import > program). Just for reference, with Nikki's help I now have an alpha version of a VA2KA9Q gateway program to take outgoing messages from the VA setup and pass them to KA9Q (not exactly difficult). If anyone wants to experiment with it let me know. Importing the KA9Q batch.txt is straightforward enough, although not (currently) without problems. Meanwhile, can anyone confirm that the ordering of header fields for mail/news articles does not matter *in practice*? A look at the headers of this article will show some rather odd ordering, but that's due to the nature of the way the gateway works and I'd rather not change it. But, of-course, I will if it's going to break anything elsewhere. Whilst I'm here, a public thank-you to Nikki is in order. Thanks, Nikki. Mark.
