So I use a pure DOS setup as well (MSDOS 6.22, Desqview/QEMM, QuickBBS,
FMAIL) and I ported binkd to using wattcp and DJGPP a few weeks back. So it's
version based off version 1.1 and I've used it for awhile and seems stable. I
used it with a packet driver and it's had no issues at all.

I've never officially published a binary but the source is on my github
account. I'm not sure where I would distribute such a binary aside from my BBS
or I guess my github account. 

github.com/mynameistroy

I suppose publishing it through the filebone is also an option.

I've also starting porting the latest fmail back to DOS as well again via
DJGPP so maybe in a bit I'll have a new version of that to publish.
