Winlink Airmail - not getting e-mail

[geoffr]

I have just moved to a new computer - installed Airmail and moved the c:\programdata\airmail files across.

I can send emails (eg position reports), but am not receiving any emails (I sent some test e-mails). Does anyone know where I may have an incorrect setting etc?

Check your ‘White’ list..

Try sending and receiving via Telelink first instead of Pactor.

All my test so far are over telnet.
Whitelist - doesn't that get update if you send from winlink first? (I did that) I've also tried sending WL2K_RMS request, but don't get anything back.

Send a test message to me

Did your contacts move over correctly? If you do not have the recipient in your contacts then you cannot receive emails. Meaning, I can send you an email but you may not get it because I am not in your contacts list. Not sure if you did an export of your contacts.

In your telnet set up..check your password setting

Clay,

I just sent you a test message (aa3jy@winlink.org)

thanks

[AA3JY]

Yep..got it. Sent reply

[geoffr]

Clay - I didn't get either of your messages downloaded by winlink (I did get them on our forwarded address).

the whitelist only has my @gmail.com account in it... would that have blocked your reply?

Ok... Found the problem (DOH).. I had enabled forwarding which forwards the e-mail and removes it from the list for airmail to download.

Thanks for pointing me to the white list as it caused me to look at the other options!
