Are you having an issue with the APOD area? I sometimes get an issue like that with the epod area myself. I have been considering renaming the files hatched in fsxNet with a different filename. If I know others had issues I would do that for the apod hatches.

I run my mailin.sh script every three minites and it seems to work well for me as long as there are no dupelicate filenames.

There was another way with modem calls to have BBBS exit and do mail and files but I don't think there is a way from ./bbbsd, at least not that I know of.
