well... it does but...

separately... true... it is one for sbbaecho's use only... we ran into it 
recently when checking with rob about the sbbsecho command line parameters 
after someone else asked about how to import netmails written to one's own 
address...

that's something that will require some additional research... everything i've 
found so far has been running sbbsecho with binkd in BSO format...

 JD> I think much the same will hold true in BSO style.

in BSO format, you're not even presented with a netmail directory field to fill
