It's software from 1999, that was the only way. If this doesnt meet what is required, I have no other options sorry.

It doesn't seem to hurt anything, your mail gets through, so it's not crucial, so not a requirement. But it is strange...

Your option is to use other software! ;-)

Of course - I guess I'm holding onto the old days and keeping a piece of history alive (DOS app, running on a 32bit OS, on top of a 64bit hypervisor with virtual comm ports) - Completely cobbled together, after all, this is
how we all got into BBS's right? Just making 'stuff' work was all part of
the fun of it. Searchlight Software ceased to exist in 1999, I'll be one of
the last men standing.

like ums maybe ?

it only stable if firs 4Gb partion on amiga is only used for amiga ums storage,
it does direct access on blocks, so bigger harddisks do work in amiga, but ums
crash over 4Gb limit, its not the partion size, but store must be on first 4Gb
blocks, while i had it working it was real nice that all fidonet and email, netmail usenet could be loaded from same storage, i miss all the problems with crashmail :=)
