But the       paths the outgoing stuff was written to was set to /fido/amiganet,       /fido/fsxnet and       so on.              Naturally, Binkd was looking in /fido/Fsxnet.xxx and /fido/Amiganet.xxx.       --- End Quote              Notice there were no extensions in the first sentence.              If his "stuff" was being /written/ to directories /without/ hex extensions,       that is NOT binkd's doing, it is Crashmail. If he meant to say "But the paths       the outgoing stuff was written to was set to /fido/amiganet.027,       /fido/fsxnet.015 and so on," then it was simply a case problem where he       defined his domains in binkd with uppercase first letters and lowercase first       letters in Crashmail. However, that is NOT what he originally said. I gave him       an answer to what he originally said.              If what he said was wrong, then my answer was wrong, too. One can only go by       what is written when trying to help.              Regards,       Nick              ...
