Hello IB Joe, when D'Bridge has finished tossing mail, it creates two 
wonderful semaphore files for your usage/amusement:

DBRIDGE.NMW - NETmail waiting, if any
DBRIDGE.EMW - Echomail waiting, if any

Or if thats not sufficient, you could create a process/script/batch which
checks for the presence of DBRIDGE.PTM (Processing/Tossing Mail). That file
is created during tossing and erased when all tossing has completed.

Or... you could run D'Bridge from a batch file, calling DB UNPACK which will 
tell the mailer to unpack/toss mail, and quit back to DOS when done.

Think Burger king... "Have it your way".

Send to the mailer only - Have SBBS send mail as FD/Arcmail attachments
as-is. As in, the attachment messages go into the D'Bridge Netmail directory
with the attachments themselves sitting in a dedicated directory - Please do
NOT use the Binkd BSO directories or store things in the D'Bridge Queue.
