MakeNL only supports a *.MSG netmail area.  If your software doesn't support
*.MSG for outgoing netmail, then you will need to use some other method to send
your segment file to the next level coordinator.  Possibilities include copying
the segment file into a filebox directory for your uplink, or using a utility
program of some type to create a file attachment in your mailer's outbound
queue.  For BinkleyTerm style outbounds, PLEASE.COM can do this, amongst others.
