Hi! Deon,

:)  I keep trying to justify to myself to use file boxes in my old Radius,
against an otherwise total Linux config.  I can't.  Two binkD jobs do it well
at present.  I just miss Radius, which I was still learning to use even after
more than a decade.

Fingers-crossed that it continues for you.  The outline history of these
mailers is: Radius was a project to fix Argus; and, Taurus was a private
experiment based on Radius.

There is a commercial package (based on Taurus) called Trapgate that has
divorced Fidonet, in effect, aimed at the web-based BBS market.

Okay.  I used to have a NOHYD override active for at least one downlink.  It
might have been his maiier's problem (an old MBSE, IIRC).

Good luck.

Cheers,
Paul.
