subject: Unixtime in M_GOT frames

 AL> Hello everybody!

 AL> I have recently noticed that some versions of BinkD are listing a
 AL> 64-bit value for the Unixtime sent in M_GOT frames acknowledging
 AL> received files.  This, of course, can cause issues for mailers that
 AL> are expecting a 32-bit value. FTS-1026.001 (Binkp/1.0 protocol
 AL> specification) does not specify the size of this field.

After reading the specs and using tcpdump to have a look at the data that is
transmitted, I'm not sure what you are talking about. I only see the time in
plain ASCII like "1573202153".
