Hi Gary,

I've been using amibinkd now since probably May or so.  It is working pretty well for me.  I connect with all of the following networks:  FidoNet, C=Net, RetroNet, PiNet, fsxNet, MicroNet and The Quantum Wormhole Net.  I am able to poll them with no problems and also receive mail from them with no problems.  Are you running it in Server mode when you start your bbs?  I think it is just amibinkd -s to start it in server mode.  Will have to look at my config files.  If you'd like sometime I can take a look at your config file to see if I can help.  I am using the standart binkd ports.

I am running Zeus 1.7 now at my BBS.. (See tag below).  I started back up with Excelsior! and it would receive mail OK but could never make it pick up the outgoing messages.  I think it is due to a Y2K bug in the code because the dates on the outgoing messages were screwed up so I switched over to Zeus.

If I can be of any help you can message me here or at my BBS or via Email: timgrooms@gmail.com
