   Hello Tommi!

22 Sep 25 19:52, you wrote to me:

I changed it to binkp.net

#
domain fidonet /var/spool/ftn/outb 4 binkp.net
domain fsxnet  /var/spool/ftn/outb 4 fsxnet.nz

#
#  Aliases to support known wrong 5D configurations
domain fido     alias-for fidonet
domain fsx      alias-for fsxnet

#
#  Aliases to support known DNS domain zones
#  (some people mix up the terms "FTN domain" and "DNS internet domain")
domain fidonet.org alias-for fidonet
domain fidonet.net alias-for fidonet
domain fsxnet.nz alias-for fsxnet

Still doesn't send messages to other zones.
