Hi Peter,

 PK> A merry Xmas to you......;-)

Thanks, a Merry Christmas to you and yours.

 RT>> IREX does not send mail packet xxxxxxx.SA0 which is in 
 RT>> Outbound.005 (fido).
 RT>> Have not tried it with my other networks yet.

 PK> I don't know Lora BBS at all sorry, however using a Binkley style 
 PK> outbound (BSO), if your PRIMARY zone is defined as Zone 5, then -
 PK>   Outbound              is Zone 5
 PK>   Outbound.001          is Zone 1
 PK>   Outbound.002          is Zone 2
 PK>   etc

Outbound      FamilyNet - POTS
Outbound.001  Zone1 - IREX - e-mail
Outbound.002  CCCNet - POTS
Outbound.005  Zone2, 3, 4, 5, 6 - IREX - FTP
Outbound.0DC  ????????

As far as I know this is a Binkley type outbound, and no idea why it is like 
that, it has not bothered me or caused me any problems


 PK> and you should NOT have an Outbound.005 at all!

:-(((

 PK> It sounds to me like you are using a DIFFERENT Primary Zone between 
 PK> the BBS, mailer tosser, mail packer and IREX configurations, probably 
 PK> in the packer definition. They should should ALL be based on the SAME 
 PK> Primary Zone to be able to work together the same way. All "other" 
 PK> zones are Secondary and should have the numerical extensions on their 
 PK> Outbound Directory names.

Primary Zone is FamilyNet (8:7905/1) is the same for BBS, mailer, tosser, mail 
packer as these are all part of LoraBBS. IREX only handles my FidoNet feeds.

 PK> Here, my "Outbound" directory is Zone 3, and I do not have an 
 PK> Outbound.003 at all.

Understood.

 PK> Does that help?

Other than suggest that I might benefit from changing my Primary AKA from my 
FamilyNet AKA (my first network) to my local Zone5 AKA, not really, at this 
stage.
