Many tossers support only what I would call "4.5D", meaning they do support FTN
domains, but they may not support the case where two different domains have the
same zone - for example, SBBSEcho seems to use a zone to domain mapping, which
would preclude this scenario, although 5D is supposed to be there to deal with
that situation.  But that's sufficient for our purposes here. :)  I haven't
tested the extent of Mystic's 5D support at this time.  Maybe one day I should
configure a dummy FTN with the same zone and different domain as one of my FTNs
and see what happens. :)

As long as hpt can support having separate outbound directories for each FTN
domain, it should work with binkd in 5D mode.
