A trap that gets everybody :)

The number at the end (21 and 1337) is *not* the zone number for the domain, it is the zone number that this "outbound" represents.

Its normal to use the same "outbound" for all your zones (/home/bbs/ftn/outbound) in your case, and the number on the end should be what it represents by default. If that is zone 21, then *every* domain line should have 21 for each different domain.

This helps binkd determine which outbound to put "other zone" mail in.

IE:

having:

domain fsxnet /home/bbs/ftn/outbound 21, and
domain tqwnet /home/bbs/ftn/outbound 21

Means:

* /home/bbs/ftn/outbound is the path prefix for my outgoing mail
* zone 21 mail will go it it directly
* zone 1337 mail will go in it with the hex 539 appended (ie: /home/bbs/ftn/outbound.539

Hope that makes sense :)
