====== Import FIDONET.NA in to message bases ======

The '[Import_FIDONET.NA]' stanza tasks MUTIL with running a function that will bulk auto create a number of message bases in Mystic for you. 

MUTIL looks to a specially formatted text file that you specify. It's formatted with echoarea tag and a description of the message base. Mystic then will create the message bases contained in this file en-mass and quickly!

Here's an snippet from a .NA file set up for Fidonet echoareas

  MOVIES              Movies & TV Discussion
  MUFFIN              Maximus BBS Discussion And Support.
  MYSTIC              Discussion and chat about the Mystic BBS software
  NET_DEV             Fidonet Network Development
  NFL                 National Football League scores, discussion, etc. 
  NHL                 The National Hockey League Discussion Echo

To enable this function you modify the '[general]' stanza as follows:


  [general]
  
  Import_FIDONET.NA       = true
  
There a several switches you can configure that relate to this function.

The filename to read when running the import process.

  ; filename to import
    filename = fidonet.na
    
Should Mystic convert echoarea tags to lowercase?

  ; convert tags to lower case for message base filename  1=yes
    lowercase_filename = 1
    
The following options define the "default" values used when creating any new message bases.  __netaddress must match an exiting network address configured within Mystic BBS__.  default values are also taken from the system configuration for origin line, colors, etc.

In the example below we want newly created fsxNet message bases to have the address 21:1/123 (a node number you have been allocated), level 10 security and group 1 membership to see the message base and read it's content, level 20 security and group 1 membership to post to it etc.

  ; the network address to associate with the message base
    netaddress     = 21:1/123
  
  ; ACS to see the message base   
    acs_list       = s10g1
   
  ; ACS to read messages in the message base
    acs_read       = s10g1
    
  ; ACS to post a message in the message base 
    acs_post       = s20g1
    
  ; ACS to use the message base with sysop access
    acs_sysop      = s255g1
    
  ; Display header to use in message base
    header         = msghead
    
  ; Display template to use in message base
    read_template  = ansimrd
    
  ; Index template to use in message base
    index_template = ansimlst
    
  ; maximum messages to retain
    max_msgs       = 500
    
  ; maximum number of days to hold messages
    max_msgs_age   = 365

  ; true/false type values 0=false 1=true (newscan 2=forced)
  
  ; allow auto signatures in this base?
    use_autosig    = 1
    
  ; use real names in this base?  
    use_realname   = 0
    
  ; kill kludge lines in this base?   
    kill_kludge    = 1
    
  ; base is part of new messages scan?  
    new_scan       = 1
    
  ; base is part of new messages scan for QWK network?  
    qwk_scan       = 1  
  
  ; define message base format 0 = JAM
    base_format = 0
