Re: Possible bug in "Send P Msgs to more than one BBS"

Thanks, Chris.

A bit further down the code it does just that - comment is


?? ???? // We should choose the BBS with most matching elements (ie match on #23.GBR better that GBR)
?? ???? // If SendPtoMultiple is set I think we send to any with same match level

?? ???? // So if SendPtoMultiple is set I think I need to find the best depth then send to all with the same depth

But as you say it never gets that far. I think the code needs reordering. I'll look into that.

I was having a problem with mail routing the wrong direction and I think I've tracked it down to the "Send P Msgs to more than one BBS" feature for HA forwarding.

Steps to recreate:

Create a first BBS that sends HR personals to WW.
Create a second BBS with a name later alphabetically that sends HR personals to #77.gbr.euro
Activate Send P Msgs to more than one BBS

Send a message to MM0UHR@MM0UHR.#77.gbr.euro.

Expected behaviour is that the mail will go to the second BBS. In practice it goes to the first.

The problem seems to be in MailRouting.c lines 1476-1513. It searches through BBSs until it gets any match (which the first BBS will match with WW) and sends to every BBS that has a match at that specific match level (excluding the better match second BBS). Having completed the send loop it quits the search loop and the more accurate BBS is never found.

I think it should complete the search loop entirely and then start the send loop.
