Ol> With binkd it is.

OK, I'll have a go at this once I get the pieces together.

Ol> The easiest way is to install stunnel and ncat. You have to create
Ol> a self-signed certificate (or use the one from letsencrypt) and
Ol> configure stunnel. Just take an example for https, smtps, imaps or
Ol> pop3s and change the ports.

Ol> and then use -pipe and ncat in the node line:

Ol> node 5:4/3@fidonet -pipe "ncat --ssl-alpn binkp *H *I"
Ol> hostname:24553 - or
Ol> node 5:4/3@fidonet -pipe "ncat --ssl hostname 24553"

This can be used to connect securely to a binkd mailer listening
securely?

It'll take me a bit. I have a few minutes here and a few minutes there
before I need to be on my way but I'll get there.. :)
