   Interfacing FD with Mystic

   Of course it's possible ... somehow :)   
      
   1) FD receives files either in NETFILES or SECFILES (based on session   
   security).   
      
   2) FD will send files form *anywhere*, the Static Queue (STQ) and NetMail   
   folder is what tells FD what to send. A NetMail message (.MSG) in the NetMail   
   folder can attach files from any directory, there is no automatic "spool   
   directory". A STQ entry can point to any file, there's no "automatic logic".   
      
   3) IF FD receives *raw* .PKT files into its NETFILES or SECFILES directories   
   during a session, or finds them there upon startup, it will unpack them,   
   unless the FDOPT environment variable contains NOUNPACK (can also be specified   
   on the command-line as /NOUNPACK).   
      
   4) FD does not have a directory for "send" (see #2).
