Yes that's correct.

When binkp polls or receives it sends/receives anything in the outbound for the other system.
If there is nothing in the outbound, then of course it won't send anything.

Use:

c:\\ele\binkd\binkd.exe -P 1:/340/400 c:\\ele\binkd\binkd\binkdall.cfg

Your using the server and client flags when polling, just drop them. ( -s -c ), only need the '-P' .

Don't know what the -T does (It's not in the linux version).

The -s flag is for running binkp all the time as your system server. so you need that for allowing systems to poll you (Say
someone wants to send you a direct netmail, or your uplink wants to be able to poll your system.
