   what do you mean "setting his outbound directory"?? that sounds like a   
   filebox... you should not mix fileboxes and the normal BSO outbound if that's   
   what irex is using... put the fileboxes in c:\irex\boxes instead...   
      
   eg:   
     c:\irex\boxes\1\3634\12   
     c:\irex\boxes\8\0\0   
     c:\irex\boxes\57\57\0   
      
   i do something similar as above with my binkd but i have both inbound and   
   outbound boxes... i use the full address separated by backslashes as shown...   
   that way it is easy for me to see what zone, net and node i'm working with...

   i suspect that it is because you are mixing your fileboxes in with your BSO...   
   BSO will create directories like that, though, but they are numbered by zone   
   instead of net... either drop the fileboxes and use the plain BSO or move the   
   fileboxes out of the BSO...
