Hey guys, I have a question. I'm trying to set up communication between a windows based Synchro install and a new Rasp Pi Synchro install for QWK network I'm working on.

I have logged into the existing Win system and registered normally for a QWK only account. When the pi tries to exchange mail, I'm getting a,
!attempted to upload to an invalid directory , error.

Any direction on this?

Most likely you you're attempting to upload a file that is not HUBID.REP where HUBID is the hub BBS's QWK-ID. Double check your configurations on both the QWKnet hub (in SCFG->Message Options) and the QWKnet node (in SCFG->Networks->QWK->Hubs). They need to match.

Thanks for your help on this Rob.
