Well, like I said, as far as I know, Binkshim's ONLY purpose
is to work between Binkley and Wildcat, solely due to the "weird"
way that Wildcat interfaces with mailers. Otherwise, Wildcat
sysops have to use something like Platinum Express, which is made
specfically for Wildcat.
So I suspect... unless you run Wildcat, it won't do anything for you.
I may be wrong on that, of course and I hope you do get it working. :)
