   I got this thus everything you're done is working.  I've dound with sbbsecho   
   it's better if you use complete paths in the setup.  Less confusion.   
      
      
    JH> I will double check the 'f' switch with binkd - correct?  (not   
    JH> sbbsecho, help screen there doesn't mention -f option)   
      
   Don't bother.  It was tossed properly so you indeed have teh -f switch there.    
   As I said, make sure in binkd.cfg where you specify the putbound folder, make   
   sure you add a '1' as that is your home zone.  You may also want to add,   
   although it is not needed, an origin line. Right now yours is blank.   
      
   --- SBBSecho 3.00-Linux   
    # Origin:  (1:154/40)   
      
   To change it, go to ./scfg > Networks > Fido > Default Origin Line   
      
   Enjoy and good luck!!
