    JB> Hello All!   
      
    JB> I have ECHOCFG setup with a Binkley style front end. I have Internet   
    JB> Rex (binkp) and BINKDWIN (binkd) also set up as Binkley flo mailers. I   
      
   You only need one of those mailers. I'd can Irex  and use binkd.   
      
    JB> belong to 2 nets, fidonet 1:3828/12 and Dixienet 901:1/11. Echo and   
    JB> netmails in SBBS are properly scanned and packed by SBBSECHO as noted   
    JB> on the screen during processeing and in the sbbsecho.log. SBBSECHO   
    JB> places outbound messages for 901:1/1 in an outbound called   
    JB> \outbound.385. I have tried sending packets to my uplink using both   
    JB> binkp and binkd. In both I have the path to my outbound as   
    JB> c:\sbbs\fido\outbound. In SBBS I have the same path to my outbound. Why   
    JB> is SBBSECHO placing the mail in \outbound.385? I tried manually moving   
    JB> the packets from \outbound.385 to \outbound and still, neither bink   
    JB> recognizes mail after a rescan.   
      
   binkd works on hex addressing. The conversion for decimal 901 is hex 385.   
   Sbbsecho puts it in that folder automatically which it should.   
      
   I would first look at your binkd.cfg and make sure the following are set:   
      
   domain fidonet c:\\sbbs\\fido\\outbound 1   
   domain Dixienet c:\\sbbs\\fido\\outbound 1   
      
   binkd will create all the outbound.??? folders for other networks.   
      
   address 1:3828/12.0@fidonet   
   address 901:1/11.0@dixienet   
      
      
   Make sure you also have a binkd style nodelist to tell what the INA of each   
   node is.    
      
   I would also like to look at your sbbsecho.ini file to make sure you have   
   zone-blind set correctly.  Also, sbbsecho should create a *.*LO and/or *.*UT   
   file.  Let us know what those are as well...
