No matter what you put in as your directory, it should work, technically.
Whether it is what you meant to type or not is a different story. ie:

/path/to/filebox/2.280.5555.2

Typed on accident in a node definition, will still work when putting files in
that directory, since it was originally specified that way.

Although now that I think about it more, I see what Kees is saying. But for the
record, it IS one of the few mailers that don't do this already. Then again,
binkd is one of the only daemon mailers out there, so whatever.

I have demons as well, but I don't think that matters much when it comes to
binkd. :)

Regards,
Nick
