   If you have to do that, create the files in a temporary directory on the same   
   drive as the filebox. And when the files are ready, do a rename to the filebox   
   dir. Rename is an atomic operation on most os's afaik. So binkd won't see any   
   "half" written files.

   The best way, of course, is to use the normal outbound directory in the   
   propper way for this, and not use a filebox. ;)
