There have been issues lately with the binkp.net resolving fidonet-style
addresses to an IP address.
You can avoid that by defining the location of a nodelist file on your
BBS machine, in the [domain] section for Fidonet, in your sbbsecho.ini
file.
It's documented here:
https://wiki.synchro.net/config:sbbsecho.ini#domain_sections
That way, the calling system can just use the normal domain name for the
called system as defined by the "INA:" part of the nodelist entry.
... Gone crazy, be back later, please leave message.
