PL> WHat I need to know is, because I remeber some time ago the abilty to

 AI> One thing just popped into my head, is some kind of a move utility

yes, as well as a bit of simple .BAT file code... however, the one util checks
flags and such and works with the STatic Queue (STQ)... however, i cannot
remember if it was ever released to the public... i think so but will have to
check a few things to be sure... i know that if it/they are in my files areas,
then they were released... hopefully, they've not gone tripping somewhere and
i've lost them...

 AI> If so you could use it to move mail/files for
 AI> certain nodes to another directory. Binkd has support for
 AI> fileboxes, it'll send evertything in a certain directory to the
 AI> node specified. That would be a reliable & cost free method to
 AI> doing this I think. 

that is exactly how i run my FD/BinkD hybrid setup... fileboxes and special
routings...
