   It was FConfigW32, apologies for the typo.. but seeing as though I mentioned   
   that it crashed as soon as I added "256" to the Max exports setting, I would   
   think it would be kinda self explanatory, even with a typo. ;)

   According to my node manager, my one link is setup for no compression. So   
   either that isn't working as expected, or it's causing an error when creating   
   a .pkt. If you would like to add some more extensive debug code at that point,   
   I can retry over here to give you some more information.

   Ok.

   Hope it helps!   
      
   FYI, the toss parameter seems to work just fine. I have it setup in binkd to   
   do so upon receipt, and it hasn't had an issue yet.   
      
   So far, two issues:   
      
   1) Confirmed as I just did it again to make sure: Setting max imports to 256   
   crashes when trying to save changes and exit. Once this is done, you can not   
   execute FConfigW32.exe without it crashing right away on startup. .cfg file   
   must be deleted in order for it to work again.   
      
   2) fmail scan leaves .qqq in outbound directory and doesn't change it during   
   following runs.   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
