APRSD config was [OZAPRS] Findu and Email Unreliable ?

[Richard Hoskin]

Hi Tony,

This is a good find. (Thanks for your input Hamish.) It was my
understanding
that any messages addressed to stations in VK from out side of VK where
passed through the filters. May be I'm wrong.

Anyway for some information on APRS IS see http://www.aprs-is.net/
It will help explain the 'q' constraints.

Does connecting to port 10152 also fix the lost posit problem on findU?

Cheers
Richard

Very good.. It would appear that the 10153 port isnt passing messages back
to VK from outside the country.. This is why we dont get ACKs back from
the
EMAIL servers..

 I realise this opens a can of worms but I suspect there is a solution
that
is configurable..

Ive changed the name of the subject to see if Geoff makes a comment and
maybee catch his eye..
