    From TALIADON@21:3/138 to All on Fri Mar 5 18:49:32 2021
    Hi All,

    Does anyone know how to get Filefix to resend all of the files in a given
    area?

    Best Regards

    In a netmail to Filefix..

    %resend <file> <filearea>

    should do it. There is no way to do all files in an area, just one by one.

    That makes sense I guess: prevents systems spamming thousands of files.

    Cheers Al.

    Yes, and that only works if your link is running htick. The file will come
    back with a tic so if you have file tossing enabled those files will be imported into your filebase.

    I think allfix has a similar option but I don't know if it works the same
    way.

    I assume this is a Mystic feature question ? - From the documentation: Generally speaking, you will use FileFix to link and unlink file echo areas
    for export to you.

    It is a feature of some file tossers. Allfix and htick support the %resend command but not all filefix's do. Mystic's filefix does not.
