Hi Charles,

 CC> Basically, yes.  You need to have the same primary address in every 
 CC> program that touches/uses the Binkley outbound so that they all see 
 CC> the default outbound as being the same zone.  Otherwise, you end up 
 CC> with your situation where Lora considers ...\outbound to be for zone 
 CC> 8 (and toss mail there accordingly) whereas Rex sees it as zone 5 
 CC> (and consequently ignores outbound.005 as a duplicated zone, thus 
 CC> ignoring your mail).

I have changed the addresses in IREX to reflect those in LoraBBS, still I seem 
tho have the same problem, will test some more, before re-aranging the AKA's in 
both IREX and LoraBBS so that my Fido AKA's are first and second and see if 
this helps.

Am hoping that a Linux BBS will come along that I can use with the Husky 
Project utilities that I am currently using without hassle, so that I can leave 
OS/2 behind, but have no idea when that will be. Not that OS/2 is a bad OS, 
just that I prefer Linux.

Fido Black holes? :-(
