Hi Conny,

As Oli suggested. Look at/experiment with these settings:
From TrapToss.Man:
4.12. Outbound Handling
To facilitate cooperation with a vast number of mailers,
TrapToss supports a number of different outbound directory
formats. You can choose between 2D and 4D handling of Netmail
bundles, of EchoMail (arcmail) bundles, and of Flow files. The
keywords (NO)FORCE4DMO, (NO)OLDSTYLEMO, (NO)OLDSTYLEFLO and
(NO)OUT4D control this. Their defaults are set for perfect usage
with the TrapDoor mailer.
And don't have binkd active when you run traptoss, so you can see what traptoss creates, before binkd gets its hands on them...

Then there probably is no mail waiting for you. ;-)
Bye, Wilfred.
