true, it wasn't related to the problem... i only brought it up for

yeah, that's when i share one filebox between the two systems... but then
again, on my main system, i don't do BSO like BSO is designed... i mainly use
it for fileboxes so that others can binkp to my main system... i'd much rather
that folks would use a traditional mailer to connect, though... it would save a
lot of problems and offer more capabilities than currently possible but that's
a topic for another area ;)
