   You did nothing wrong. Fmail does not pack netmail unless it is explicitly   
   configured to do so. You can do that by setting the "Pack Netm." to "yes in   
   the node manager for the node in question.   
      
   I never do  that, I always send netmail uncompressed. But then my IP mailer is   
   Irex. Binkp may or may not need mail to be compressed in order to have it send   
   out. I am niot familiar wth Binkd.   
      
   Cheers, Michiel
