I'm investigating how to send netmail directly with binkd and hpt now. I'll
probably have to go to the binkd area and make sure I understand a couple
things correctly.

I do too, lots of times I like to reply by netmail. Routed is fine too but
sometimes I wonder if the route is good. In those cases direct is preferable.
