Both SBBSecho and mutil (Mystic) will put       the        TL> hex extension on othernet domain outbound directories.              I wonder why the default behaviour of BinkD isn't compatible with any other       software and you always need some config workaround.              Because of the weird 4D / 5D BSO issues in binkd, I switched to        miga-Style-Outbound (aso / amiga_4d_outbound) in 5D mode. I had to change a       few lines in the Crashmail code, but that was trivial and ASO is a much nicer       outbound format.              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: kakistocracy (2:280/464.47)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 103/705 154/10 203/0 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/200 426 1014 240/5832 249/109 307 317 280/464 5003 5555       SEEN-BY: 288/100 292/854 310/31 342/200 396/45 423/120 712/848 770/1       SEEN-BY: 2452/250       PATH: 280/464 229/426           |
