Hi! Philip,

I looked at this notion a few years back and couldn't find a way with FastEcho.
The closest method would be to not have FE create file-attach netmails, and
use a BATch or similar script to look for and move created ARCmail files for
nodes to fileboxes (see paragraph "6.2.4 - FastEcho Toss -F", page 114 in the
FE manual).

Frankly, I cannot remember why I would have wanted to do it, as FE's BSO
tossing is as good as it gets without the need for filebox-type
operation.[shrug]  Binkley, binkD, Argus and Radius have worked fine with FE,
here.

If anyone asks me about such things as filebox operation I usually recommend
they try/use FMail.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.
