you have to use xrobot to do the queue thing but FD should create the queue
automatically, AFAIK... i'm pretty sure that FD will create it and maybe it
is telling you that because there's nothing in it?? my fastecho and allfix
both use FD's STQ to queue mail and files for sending... i have another
tool which uses it when moving mail and files to my binkd BSO stuff... the
thing is that i don't know if i can point both FD and binkd to the same
filebox/spool directory... i mean, sure, i can but i don' tknow what will
happen if both try to deliver the same file at the same time from the same
filebox directory... the chances of that should not be very large at all
but some systems that can handle multiple protocols might try to connect
using more than of them at once...
