subject: Calling FMail on receival of messages via binkd

NJ> Is anyone using binkd as a mailer?

yes.. in a hybrid FD/binkd configuration...

 NJ> I am currently running FMail Toss in my editor startup script, but 
 NJ> I assume it is also possible to run FMail at the time of 
 NJ> receival.  Is the "exec" command in binkd.cfg the way to go here?  
 NJ> I wonder what approaches you guys use for this purpose.

no... i have binkd create the necessary semafore(s) and then process things
when those filebase semafores are found... in my specific case, i have
tasks run in other "processes"... if they find the disk/file
based semafores, then they handle that mail... if those semafores do not
exist, then the processing task(s) simply exit until the next time they
run...
