   Someone can correct me if I'm wrong here, but after checking HPT's docs and   
   sample config files:   
      
   The difference here is that you use Crashmail, where I believe you can specify   
   a separate outbound directory for each network. I'm not sure you can do that   
   with HPT. HPT uses hex extensions to the original outbound directory for   
   different zone numbers from your "default zone". So, for example, in HPT   
   sample config:   
      
   outbound /home/username/fido/outbound   
      
   Sets only one outbound directory. However, when you setup other    
   ones/networks, if your default zone is "2" it will automatically create   
   outbound.001 (for zone 1) outbound.015 (zone 21), outbound.02e (zone 46), etc.   
      
   If there is another way to do this, maybe with the "GROUPS" keyword, I never   
   bothered to look into it, since it works fine this way.   
      
   Binkd understands both of these methods, but the configuration for binkd to   
   find those directories in use is a bit different.   
      
   So, for HPT, it would be:   
      
   domain fidonet /fido/outbound 2   
   domain amiganet /fido/outbound 2   
   domain fsxnet /fido/outbound 2   
      
   etc..   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
