Hello Michiel,

Thanks for running the test, and sorry for sending you at the wrong
target.

rofbbs.com is my web address and it sits behind Cloudflare, which
only proxies HTTP/HTTPS. Those three addresses you got back
(2606:4700:... and 104.21.34.156) are Cloudflare's, not mine, so a
binkp connection to them will always time out no matter what my end
is doing. My fault for not making that clear.

The correct address for mail is:

    call.rofbbs.com   port 24554   (IBN)

That resolves to my real endpoints on both protocols:

    IPv4  68.169.145.190
    IPv6  2605:8600:60:199d:aa5a:bfc6:5328:c881

Both answer on 24554 from where I can test, but that is from inside
my own network, so I would rather have your result than mine. Would
you mind trying once more against call.rofbbs.com?

While looking into this I also found my FidoNet nodelist entry is
out of date - it still lists INA:rofbbs.ddns.net, which no longer
resolves at all, plus an old location and phone number and no IPV6
flag. That would explain any node failing to reach me from the
nodelist. I am getting that corrected with my NC.

Thanks again for the help.
