then I'm no further ahead talking with you about FD Static Queue system.
I know the mail tosser tosses mail to whatever places.... I understand this. I
can setup BinkD or InterNET Rex to have a File or Mail Box... I do this in
those programs. I then get the mail tosser to either toss mail to those
predefined directories... and then the mailer sends mail out. I define the
directory in the mailer and then setup the tosser to match the directory.
An other example is D'bridge... I have played with this over the past few
days... BUT... simpple enough there is a queue subdirectory where D'Bridge
sends mail to and there is a directory for each of my downlinks in that queue
directory.
That's it... I just don't understand this Static Queue business and when I
look through the docs there isn't enough info to sink my teeth into.
