Re: {bb} OOps ! Change in bbnet breaks imap monitoring

[Nick Metrowsky <nmetro@colorado.edu>]

Robert-Andre,

I made the changes to bb-network.sh, as per your instructions. 
I even tried both textmsg="* LOGOUT" and textmsg='* LOGOUT' (in case "*"
was doing something it shouldn't, and that did not work either. It looks
like textmsg is not getting to bbnet. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

Nick
