   So I use a pure DOS setup as well (MSDOS 6.22, Desqview/QEMM, QuickBBS,   
   FMAIL) and I ported binkd to using wattcp and DJGPP a few weeks back. So it's   
   version based off version 1.1 and I've used it for awhile and seems stable. I   
   used it with a packet driver and it's had no issues at all.   
      
   I've never officially published a binary but the source is on my github   
   account. I'm not sure where I would distribute such a binary aside from my BBS   
   or I guess my github account.    
      
   github.com/mynameistroy   
      
   I suppose publishing it through the filebone is also an option.   
      
   I've also starting porting the latest fmail back to DOS as well again via   
   DJGPP so maybe in a bit I'll have a new version of that to publish.
