    From Edmund Wong@1:153/7083 to All on Fri Nov 19 15:54:27 2021
    Hi,

    According to the upgrade docs, fidopoll is no longer required. Does this also include the usage in the events?

    I have the following for outbound messages (once someone posts a message):

    mutil export.ini|fidopoll send|mutil import.ini

    Do I now remove the fidopoll part?

    Thanks

    Edmund

    Just to answer my own question, I replaced "fidopoll send" with "mis poll send".

    fyi

    Jeez I feel stupid.

    Hello Edmund,

    I have the following for outbound messages (once someone posts a
    message):

    mutil export.ini|fidopoll send|mutil import.ini

    You might want ./mutil etc?

    I use "./mutil export|./mis poll send"

    Do I now remove the fidopoll part?

    Yes, swap it out with ./mis poll send.

    Ttyl :-),

    ... May you live in interesting times

    Its meant to be mostly a "drop in" replacement so you can change fidopoll to "mis poll" and it should work.

    There are also newer events in A47 for echomail that you can use as a reference if you want to.
