I've not seen any synchronization issues but the channels I frequent dont have
thousands of users talking at once either. I'll join a massive channel and see
how it reacts.

I'll have better instructions on the website eventually. Basically you must
setup UUCP just like you would for VISK. Using the Internet Configuration form
in VSMTP32, enter your domain name as the system name, and enter a directory
for the spool dir (like d:\va\inet\spool), set max received packet at 2048.
Create a new remote system. The remote system name is your ISP's domain name.
Enter the outgoing SMTP dir such as d:\va\inet\smtp (and NNTP dir if you want).
Hit OK a few times to exit out. Then in VSMTP32 Configuration under the SMTP
Client tab, make sure you have enabled the SMTP client.

VADV-PHP requires that it have access to your BBS data files, which means it
needs to be running on the same computer or network.
