There's a big difference between mailers that do Binkley-style and Arcmail
Attach-style routing.
Binkley-style systems get their routing details set up by the tosser. The
Tosser puts routing details into text-based *.*lo files, where even the
filename extension has an associated routing meaning and/or directive.
Arcmail systems get their routing set up by the mailer. The mailer compiles
routing information into a mailer proprietory formatted binary file. Inside the
binary file are pathnames of packets on your disk and their routing
instructions.
The only clue I have is that Argus is a GUI mailer. So somewhere on the screen
it should give details on outbound packets. So check if there's any indication
that Argus actually sees pending outbound packets after they're created by
Squish, which would be a good sign.
For example, if Argus displays your netmail packet with CRASH flag and nothing
happens this suggests a problem with Argus, probably a scheduling or Argus
configuration problem and not a Squish compatibility issue.
Good luck.
