WvV> Hi Conny,

WvV> On 2022-02-03 16:13:02, you wrote to me:

  CE>>>> The files was created by my tosser (TrapToss for Amiga) when it
  CE>>>> scanned the messages I just wrote from inside my BBS) i have ASO
  CE>>>> activated in binkd.cfg

  CE>>>> My Outbound directory have these files.

  CE>>>> 2.203.0.0 (a folder containing a file named 61f9cd2c.PKT )
  CE>>>> 2.203.0.0.WE0 ( a compressed file called 61f9cd2c.PKT when I
 WvV>>> uncompress it)

 WvV>>> You seem to be missing a .flo file, that tells binkd what files to
 WvV>>> send.

 CE>> Very strange, if I take a look in the directory Outbound from my old
 CE>> installation back in 1998 all these files exist for Fidonet and
WvV> the Aminet
 CE>> node in Outbound. ..FLO ..MO0 ..REQ ..HLO ..MO1 ..MO2 ..SA0 The
WvV> only thing
 CE>> I have done with the config files for TrapToss is to change the node
 CE>> address from my old one to the new one, I may have missed
WvV> something that
 CE>> I'm not aware of.

WvV> As Oli suggested. Look at/experiment with these settings:

WvV>  From TrapToss.Man:

WvV>   4.12. Outbound Handling

WvV>         To facilitate cooperation with a vast number of mailers,
WvV>       TrapToss supports a number of different outbound directory
WvV>       formats. You can choose between 2D and 4D handling of Netmail
WvV>       bundles, of EchoMail (arcmail) bundles, and of Flow files. The
WvV>       keywords (NO)FORCE4DMO, (NO)OLDSTYLEMO, (NO)OLDSTYLEFLO and
WvV>       (NO)OUT4D control this. Their defaults are set for perfect usage
WvV>       with the TrapDoor mailer.


The FORCE4DMO is set in TrapToss.cfg

WvV> And don't have binkd active when you run traptoss, so you can see what
WvV> traptoss creates, before binkd gets its hands on them...

  CE>>>> Nothing is sent or recived.

 WvV>>> Receiving should be automatic, as long as your binkd identifies
 WvV>>> itself correctly to the other system (AKA and password).

 CE>> Yes it does, since I got the 113 binary for binkd, connecting is no
 CE>> problem.

WvV> Then there probably is no mail waiting for you. ;-)

Ok, so try to send me a mail to 2:203/317.0 :-)

WvV> Bye, Wilfred.
