If no Synchronet-utilities are actively doing something with the mail base, it'd be safe to delete the file.ã-- ã digital man (rob)ããSynchronet/BBS Terminology Definition #52:ãMUD = Multi-User DungeonãNorco, CA WX: 66.0øF, 90.0% humidity, 0 mph ESE wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã
