I think DM replied.

Your "session" password is used for BINKP sessions - which is the issue here because mail is going in the "unsecure" dir.

Areafix, Filefix and packet passwords are *not* used during BINKP sessions - they are for other things, so you can ignore those for now and focus on your ensuring your session passwords match *exactly* with Mike. (And if you have both health and hobbynet addresses, make sure they are exactly the same.)
