3.3.14 AutoAreaCreateSubdirs

Syntax:
autoareacreatesubdirs <bool>
Example:
autoareacreatesubdirs on

This switch is turned off by default. When turned off, hpt will create a flat message base. This means that a file echo `FIDOSOFT.HUSKY' would be created in the message base directory with a base file name of `fidosoft.husky', like in `/var/spool/msgbase/fidosoft.husky.sqd' and so on.

When turned on, a structured message base will be created. Each dot in the echo name is treated as directory separator. Thus, `FIDOSOFT.HUSKY' would be created with a base name of `husky' in the `fidosoft' directory, e.g. `/var/spool/msgbase/fidosoft/husky.sqd'.

Please note that this option will not currently work if the -dosfile option is used to create filenames in 8.3 convention. See section EchoArea, for more information on the -dosfile option.
