FTN Scanner

The FTN scanner exports local echomail messages into outbound packet files for configured links.

Current behavior:

scans enabled links for the selected network profile
reads subscribed network_area_subscriptions
finds normal local/system messages in mapped echomail areas
writes Type-2+ .pkt files to paths.runtime/network/<profile>/outbound/<link>/ready
records outbound network_packets rows with status = 'pending'
records exported network_messages rows
avoids exporting the same local message to the same link more than once
materializes pending outbound netmail rows into .pkt files for the target link
bundles ready packet files into pending ZIP arcmail rows for links configured with ZIP compression

Run it manually:

bash

oxidebbs-server net scan fidonet
oxidebbs-server --json net scan fidonet

Runtime notes:

BinkP poll execution transports pending outbound packet or bundle rows and marks them processed after acknowledgement
outbound arcmail creation uses ZIP; inbound ARJ extraction is supported by the tosser
advanced SEEN-BY/PATH loop prevention remains intentionally conservative

The default outbound layout for profile fidonet and link hub is:

text

runtime/network/fidonet/
  outbound/
    hub/
      ready/
      bundled/
