Please bear with me on this one. I'm actually in the process of adding FREQ 
support at moment. This seems to have nothing to do with each separate 
piece of software as well. 

I've (which I'm sure this is probably the way you've done it too) used 
Synchronet's "filelist" utility to create my magic names containing what they 
need to. Then I'm actually using a simple FREQ processing script that comes 
with the latest binkd mailer code. When a .REQ is received, binkd launches the 
script and passes the .REQ's filename to it, where the files created by 
Synchronet's "filelist" should be read.

As for actually receiving a file you have requested, I would guess that the 
mailer would just pull the file out of the directory it resides in, without 
even having to read any of the Synchronet databases.

No problem. The sourceforge site is kind of messy. Some of the links haven't 
been touched in almost a decade. And the only downfall is you may have to 
compile it yourself. If you're not up to the task, I believe there are stable 
downloads as well.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/husky/files/husky/1.9-current/2013.10.30/

You'll probably want the first one on the list there if you run Win32. That 
will give you everything in the husky project. Of course, you don't need all 
of the modules, but I believe that's the only way the latest version comes 
these days, as they don't keep the modules updated separate from each other.

Regards,
Nick
