From TrapToss.Man:

 4.12. Outbound Handling

       To facilitate cooperation with a vast number of mailers,
     TrapToss supports a number of different outbound directory
     formats. You can choose between 2D and 4D handling of Netmail
     bundles, of EchoMail (arcmail) bundles, and of Flow files. The
     keywords (NO)FORCE4DMO, (NO)OLDSTYLEMO, (NO)OLDSTYLEFLO and
     (NO)OUT4D control this. Their defaults are set for perfect usage
     with the TrapDoor mailer.


It looks like TrapToss / TrapDoor only support 2D BSO (without zones and points as fake nets) and 4D ASO. I think 4D ASO is the better option.
