Now that you mention it though, his research and understanding of the       problem is spot on IMHO.              We've had this kind of discussion before - I dont think you understand the       problem - mainly because your replies conflict. I'm still not convinced that       the problem is with Binkd (actually I'm very confident it is not), but that is       moot - if your software doesnt work with it, I dont get why you wouldnt want       to make it work with it, even if the binkd development team werent interested       in "fixing" it the way you want it "fixed".              You have many people that like your software, wouldnt you want to make it work       so that they dont have a reason to look for something else (if it's failures       were becoming problematic for them)?              You have a known use case, as from the logs received by a Mystic user, the       file "MyGUI v1.0.2.26.zip" is encoded as "MyGUI\x20v1.0.2.26.zip" by binkd and       sent to a Mystic system. Mystic recorded "BINKP 1-Receiving: MyG       I\000v1.0.2.26.zip (1,669,424 bytes)" in the log file, and saved the received       portion as "MyGUI" (instead of it's proper name - I'm guessing related to the       \00?). The M_GOT response only included the text "M_GOT MyGUI", not what it       should have quoted back "M_GOT MyGUI\x20v1.0.2.26.zip 1669424 1641463672",       hence binkd bawlked with an error and kept re-trying to send the file       everytime the node connected.              Anyway, I dont use it - we know it cannot handle files with spaces in it from       a binkd mailer.                     ...лоеп       --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux        * Origin: I'm playing with ANSI+videotex - wanna play too?
