subject: Nothing in Outbound Area ?

I'm using BinkleyTerm 2.60.

When not specifying an "Address" statement in Binkley.cfg the
default node is Node: 1:65535/65535. However the problem is BinkleyTerm
thinks there's no outbound mail ie. it reports "Nothing in Outbound
Area" in the Pending Outbound Mail window:

+- Pending Out Mail ------------+
|                               |
|    Nothing in Outbound Area   |
|                               |
|                               |
+-------------------------------+

eventhough a .cut or .flo file exists in the outbound directory.

And if I use an unlisted address BinkleyTerm exits with "System
misconfigured or no entry in Nodelist":

  + 12 Sep 10:04:20 BINK begin, BinkleyTerm Version 2.60 -uSoft8.0
  ! 12 Sep 10:04:20 BINK No BOSS in the nodelist
  ! 12 Sep 10:04:20 BINK System misconfigured or no entry in Nodelist
  + 12 Sep 10:04:20 BINK end, BinkleyTerm Version 2.60 -uSoft8.0

Impersonating an existing address works.

So how do I send netmail (to my NC) if I haven't got a FidoNet address ?

Do I have to add a fake node to the nodelist and recompile the nodelist ?
