   So, what it seems like, is that the NC, when sending a Netmail to the   
   Allfixlist@theirnodeaddress, his system simply sends a file back, no netmail,   
   just a file, and Mystic's BinkP doesn't know how to handle that. I was able to   
   setup and run BinkD enough to connect, retrieve just the 1 file that was   
   pending, and all was well suddenly, no more issues.   
      
   So, g00r00, this sounds like a specific bug on Mystic at the moment, not being   
   able to handle that. If you can help me get DEBUG logs on fidopoll as needed,   
   and what kind of information you need, I can get you all the logs for   
   diagnosis and research. I can also get you the binkd debug logs so you can see   
   what goes on with a successful transaction similarly, since that's the only   
   way it was working.
