Read and perform + this upgrade with great care, this one is quite complicated. + Make sure you don't have download files with case differences + in download directories like FileName.zip and FILENAME.ZIP. + With this upgrade files with such names will be deleted! + Rename them before you upgrade! + Make sure your outbound is empty, "mbout stat" should not show + anything in the outbounds. You may delete ~/bin/mbfido before + you do this so when you deliver all pending mail no new mail + will be tossed. New mail will stay in your inbound now. + Now backup your whole bbs and download areas! + Compile the new bbs programs, do not yet install them. + Shutdown the bbs with "mbstat close".

You might want to check + if all the session passwords are still ok. Also check all + nodes if the Pack mail flag is ok, this setting now also + affects echomail! + Check new settings in nodes setup, screen 6, items 9 and 10. + Check TIC magic records (menu 10.4), all filenames tested are + now uppercase 8.3 names, adjust your filemasks. + In mbsetup enter the Edit Archiver Programs. The new values + should now be set. Do the same for Virus scanners. + This is all for mbsetup. + Run "mbfile check". This will create an error in the logfile + for each file! It will update the filenames on disk to have + both short and long filenames. Just ignore the errors but check + for real deleted files. + Now you are ready, install the binaries again so that mbfido + is present again and you can toss mail. Do this with + "mbstat set mailin", after a while all mail and files will be + tossed and you are back in bussines again. + Have fun. + + changes: + See all changes from development version 0.35.01 upto 0.33.07.
