Subj : FE loosing netmail

Hey all!

 I've got a real pickle of a problem here, that I just can't seem to be able 
to be able to wrestle to the ground.

It seems that no matter what I do, FE keeps 'eating' my outbound netmail.


 According to te logs, and, naturally, the programs output when I run it, it 
IS seeing the netmails, but they just disappear! :( 

Here's a ("debug") log snippet as an example:


----------  Fri 31 Oct 03, FastEcho 1.46; SCAN
+  3:37:41  NetMail: 2, EchoMail: 0
+  3:37:41  Active 0:00:01 (Extern 0:00:00)

----------  Fri 31 Oct 03, FastEcho 1.46; PACK
+  3:37:56  NetMail: 0
+  3:37:56  Active 0:00:00 (Extern 0:00:00)


I tried a complete re-install the other day (right from scratch..boy was that 
fun! :( ) and it sent ONE netmail as expected, but then just returned to the 
current state afterwards, with no changes made in between.


  I located a patch for a netmail problem... I'm not sure if this is the issue
that that patch was specifically for, but it needs a program called BUPDATE, 
which I can't seem to find.

Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, what was done to fix it?


Any insight on  this issue would be most helpful.

 

Additionally, who's currently developing/supporting FE?
