binkd? how? it doesn't even know how to read the official distributed fidonet nodelist... or any other nodelist for that matter... we won't even mention that binkd is little more than a simple protocol engine with BSO capabilities... it isn't even a full mailer... it could be, though... it could even be a dynamic BSO mailer which would eliminate the need for external 3rd party tools like bonk and son-of-bonk which are used to qualify mail to be sent and reroute netmails to another hop automatically when the qualified mail changes...

go away, benny... this practise has been in place since the mid '90s...

no they wouldn't because a properly programmed and configured FTN mailer would not even attempt to connect to that number...
BP> TCP power :)
no, programmer power...
