sestar is one of the three top-tier backbone distribution systems in fidonet... it is also a FileGate FDN distribution HUB...

when first set up, sestar used only sbbs tools... everything worked just fine... later on, sestar switched to using binkd for the mailer as an experiment and to also be able to work on what is needed for the sbbs package to do
full 5D FTN addressing...

some things are missing (eg: announcing newly arrived and processed files) but those are just icing on the cake and not really necessary...
