Hi Gary,   
      
   I've been using amibinkd now since probably May or so.  It is working pretty   
   well for me.  I connect with all of the following networks:  FidoNet, C=Net,   
   RetroNet, PiNet, fsxNet, MicroNet and The Quantum Wormhole Net.  I am able to   
   poll them with no problems and also receive mail from them with no problems.    
   Are you running it in Server mode when you start your bbs?  I think it is just   
   amibinkd -s to start it in server mode.  Will have to look at my config   
   files.  If you'd like sometime I can take a look at your config file to see if   
   I can help.  I am using the standart binkd ports.   
      
   I am running Zeus 1.7 now at my BBS.. (See tag below).  I started back up with   
   Excelsior! and it would receive mail OK but could never make it pick up the   
   outgoing messages.  I think it is due to a Y2K bug in the code because the   
   dates on the outgoing messages were screwed up so I switched over to Zeus.   
      
   If I can be of any help you can message me here or at my BBS or via Email:   
   timgrooms@gmail.com
