A different method of outbound.  Much more reliable, and simplier, in my
opinion than BSO or Arcmail attach.

The only benefit I see is that the Ftracker is much more powerful.  You can
use intresting features like the handling of ARQ flag to generate a message
from the origin node letting them know to which system their message was
routed to. That only touches the surface really.  Your tosser only performs
the basics.
