   yes, fileboxes are the same as spool directories... anything you drop in them   
   is automajikally flicked over the wall and appears in the destination system's   
   inbound...   
      
   now the question is if i can have FD and binkd both working with the same   
   filebox/spool directories so that mail can be picked up by either method...   
   i've been keeping them split and only doing part of my config steps when i add   
   a new telnet connected node... when i add a binkp connected node, i have   
   several more steps to do...

   Do you manage your own servers? If you are not running an IDS/IPS yer doin' it
