The <strong>PK</strong>-<strong>232</strong> MailDrop also supports BIDs (Bulletin IDs). This support<br />
is required for Reverse Forwarding (see below). The BID begins with a<br />
"$" character and is sent and received in the Send command line:<br />
S N7ML @ K6RFK < N6IA $345_KB7B<br />
With the <strong>PK</strong>-<strong>232</strong> MailDrop you may also use just the "$" all by itself<br />
as shown in the two examples below:<br />
S N7ML @ K6RFK < N6IA $<br />
or S ALL $<br />
In this case, the <strong>PK</strong>-<strong>232</strong> MailDrop will assign its own BID to these<br />
messages.<br />
5.4.10 V (VERSION) (Remote only command)<br />
The "V" command causes the <strong>PK</strong>-<strong>232</strong> to send the sign-on message and<br />
firmware date to the remote user only.<br />
5.4.11 ? (HELP) (Remote only command)<br />
The "?" command sends the distant station a HELP list of all available<br />
MailDrop commands shown above under the "H" command. Both the "?" and<br />
the "H" cause this same file to be sent to the remote user.<br />
5.5 Sample MailDrop Session - The Remote User's Point of View<br />
Let's see what the MailDrop looks like to a calling station. Let's<br />
assume that your call is "WX1AAA", and that you wish to connect and<br />
log on to "WX2BBB's" MailDrop system. During your session on his<br />
MailDrop, you wish to list the messages to see if there is a message<br />
for you, read it if it exists, kill it after you're done reading it,<br />
send a return message to WX2BBB and finally log off or disconnect from<br />
his MailDrop.<br />
5.5.1 Connect and Logon<br />
From the cmd: prompt, type the usual connect request:<br />
cmd:c wx2bbb<br />
