I used to have all this stuff working for years but for some goddamn reason it's not anymore. 

Fidonet (in and outgoing) works fine. Netmail to other networks (in and outgoing) works fine but regular packets (echomail) to other networks does not. 

this is from Binkd: 

domain fidonet /fido/outbound 2
domain fido alias-for fidonet
domain fidonet.org alias-for fidonet
domain amiganet /fido/amiganet 2
domain fsxnet /fido/fsxnet 2
domain micronet /fido/micronet 2

This is from crashmail.prefs: 

INBOUND /fido/inbound/
OUTBOUND /fido/outbound/
STATSFILE /etc/binkd/CrashMail.stats
TEMPDIR /fido/tmp/
CREATEPKTDIR /fido/tmp/
PACKETDIR /fido/packets/


Now, this is not an static error. For some reason, Binkd would send a number of packets to Amiganet and then when I write some more messages it will not touch it. 

This file tells Binkd what to send (I think): 

ftn@bbsutils:/fido/amiganet.027$ ls
009600c8.try

In the packets directory lies the package itself: 

ftn@bbsutils:/fido/packets$ ls
ee2fef00.pkt


I've checked: file permissions, network, DNS. It's all correct.  And as I said: it all works with Fidonet. 

I have no idea what to try next.  Any ideas are welcome.
