<Hmmm> Is argus a static mailer such as Binkley or a

I do not really understand the differences, but from the help files
of Argus I see that it uses the Binkley-style outbound structure.
The line in SQUISH.CFG for ArcmailAttach is commented out.

There are no references to zonegates remaining in my SQUISH.CFG, all
are commented out.
I am bothered by a comment in SQUISH.DOC with respect to the route
statement you quote above:
WARNING!
The NoArc modifier causes all 4D zone and point information
to be lost! Only net and node numbers will be maintained for
mail routed with the NoArc keyword.
Also, the same thing happens to me on netmail sent to a zone 1 node.
It sits in the Argus outbound box addressed to that node, and will not
get sent until I manually manipulate it unless I have previously
entered that nodes connection domain into my Argus tables. If Argus
would pick up the connection domain out of the nodelist -- that would
be great, but it does not do so for me.
Thanks for the response. I'm still looking for a solution though.
