 Av> But looking at this manual description I'm not 100% clear on why you run a separate netmail base for Filefix? It appears netmails sent to both commands would land in your defined 'robots' base using the one keyword.

areafix messages are processed during the run of "hpt toss", however hpt doesnt process filefix messages, so they need to be stored, so that "htick scan" can find them and process them.

"htick" only looks for robot messages (areafix/filefix) in the "robots" area (or the first netmail configuration), but hpt puts filefix messages in the netmail area that is defined for the zone (or the global catch all). Sometimes there is a mismatch (as in my case), so I have to move filefix messages to the robots area manually (or rather programmatically) for htick scan to find them.
