  • old timed event?

    From xbit@1:103/705 to All on Thursday, January 26, 2023 11:44:32
    Been working on cleaning up some old settings. One of them is a timed event named MAIN that calls event.bat. I use it for my door game maint but it has the
    following sync maintenance lines that I feel can be removed now? Just want to make sure before messing with message base maintenance.

    ----------
    rem ********************
    MESSAGE BASE MAINTENANCE
    rem ** *****************
    cd \sbbs\exec
    smbutil mp1000 \sbbs\data\subs\*.shd
    if weekday== blah blah
    ----------
