even when using full 5D? i think you're remembering 3D/4D in which all BSO
directories have the same base name...

 Oli> The example I posted was a quote from FTS-5005
http://ftsc.org/docs/fts-5005.003

it is possible the document is wrong or doesn't explain things clearly...

 Oli> Which tossers do support 5D.nohex binkD style outbound?

i'm not sure, at this point, and don't have the means to test like i used to
have... i just know that the main difference between 3D/4D and 5D is the
outbounds for other FTNs have different base names from the main FTN domain...
in that case, they do properly have the zone HEX on the additional directories
beside the main one /for that domain/ as opposed to doing that for *all*
directories except the main outbound... again, that's my understanding even
though there are numerous tossers used today that are doing it differently...
