The empty "File" is permitted.

Is this function broken when File setting is blank?

Did you configure it before the 25th or on the 25th ?

I've just set one up today(25th) to post on the 26th .....

..... but I set it up a bit different to yours. Mine is a one-off post whereas yours is a monthly post on the 25th, not that that should make any difference in this instance. Watch out for it appearing(or not) in
FIDOTEST tomorrow(26th).

Further to what I said about this in an earlier post, I've just polled Richard a few minutes ago and one of the messages I received was your Autosend message - (MsgID eec07488). Looks to me as though it got delayed somewhere because it wasn't there when I polled Richard 1.5 hours ago ?

BEFORE.

I may have gone in to look at it with E)dit, but this time I
noticed the S)end option versus just <Esc>ing out of that menu.

OXP's schedule options: days, weekdays, months, one-off's.. is
very versatile.

I assumed the thing wasn't going out because I did not see it in
the usual live polling status thing where we can watch a
connection being made and see the pkts arriving or being sent.

Maybe these Autosend msgs/pkts are not logged?

I forgot to look for evidence of it in the netcall log right
after midnight right after a pool. :(
