   What should work with most tossers is running a separate instanc   
   /configuration for one of the overlapping nets and export the mail to   
   different outbound directories. For inbound you can use binkd's inbox node   
   parameter and copy the incoming files with "exec" to a separate inbox. Or try   
   a perl-hook script in binkd to sort incoming mail. You can also run to binkd   
   instances on different ports with different binkd.cfg files.   
      
   Alternatively you can try a tosser that supports 5D, like Squish or Crashmail   
   (though I'm not really sure, if they fully support the same zone number on   
   different domains).   
      
   I would also recommend to use different session and packet passwords for each   
   network.   
      
   Unfortunately there are several pitfalls and weird things can happen. A full   
   5D setup is possible, but it's not trivial.
