outbound

[Rick Smith]

Hello All!

SO while helping someone else setup binkd/hpt we noticed a problem which turns
out is happening on mine aswell. The issue only happens with one FTN tho
FU-Net, its outbound got created I believe its out.06e howeverwhen mail packs
it puts in just /out now binkd nows that dir but it wont deliver from /out if I
move thepackets to /out.06e binkd sees it and delivers the pkts? Any thoughts?

Regards,

Rick

Sounds like you have your tosser setup with FU-Net as the default outbound
(which makes FU-Net's zone number the default, so it doesn't use an extension
(.06e), whereas in binkd you have Fidonet (zone 1) setup as the default
outbound, so binkd uses the directory extension for other networks.
