   Hi Nick,   
      
   On 2025-11-24 07:33:32, you wrote to me:

    NB> If FMail supports fileboxes:   
      
   It does, but they shouldn't be used in combination with BSO/binkd, because it   
   bypasses all the lock/busy file logic, between the mailer and tosser, that is   
   normally happening in a BSO directory structure. So you have to make sure that   
   putting files in a filebox is done atomically. So use 'move' from a directory   
   on the same partition, and not 'copy'! ;-)   
      
    NB> Fileboxes per link can be used in BSO mode where anything put in said   
    NB> directory (usually manually) would be sent to the link.   
      
   I'm aware of that. And fileboxes can be defined in the binkd config for each   
   link (I use that), while it supports the normal BSO file logic at the same   
   time. If that is what Sean wants/need, it is a good option, and you don't need   
   FMail/any-tosser, to be involved. Just don't use netmail file attaches.   
      
    NB> So in Sean's case, if he knows where this/these netmail attach files   
    NB> are supposed to be going, he can setup a filebox for that link, and   
    NB> manually move the file into that directory so it gets sent the the   
    NB> proper system.   
      
   Yes, in the binkd config.   
      
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
