I don't have fmail or crashmail. I run HPT as a main tosser in my OS/2 with BSO, and all I need to setup in HPT is this:

filebox                  \fd\filebox\joho\
fileboxalways

So HPT will put all mail to filebox to be sent out.

Also in BinkD the same filebox is set up, so mail can be picked up via FD or BinkP.

Needs a little manual work to set this up, but it works. ;)
