Hello paulie420!

I second that!

Yes, that would be nice... :)

Speaking of that, but in the other direction, I think Mystic will virus scan FTP uploads if Test Uploads = Yes and Test CmdLine etc. is set in the FTP server options, and import FILE_ID.DIZs (my memory is a bit vague on that, though). Scanning might cause timeouts for clients, though.

Best regards
