   I haven't used binkp, but when I ran my BBS in Windows, I was using Radius for   
   my mailer.  I eventually decided to switch to binkit because binkit is written   
   in JS for Synchronet and would run wherever Synchronet runs.  I wanted to move   
   my BBS to Linux (which I eventually did), and using binkit helped with that,   
   since binkit continued to run in Linux just as it did in Windows.   
      
   I imagine your reasons may differ though..  If you have a setup that already   
   works, there may be less of a compelling reason to switch, unless you want   
   something that's better integrated with Synchronet.
