Hey Nick,

You are right, I missed that or my brain autocorected it. As the the upper
case domains were defined in crashmail.prefs, but not in binkd, I assumed it
was simply a upper/lower case problem.

I believe it was, because Crashmail has no concept of a default zone for the
other domains. There is only one default zone (for the first domain /
outbound).

See https://github.com/ftnapps/crashmail/blob/master/src/crashma
l/outbound.c#L65

The outbound directory structure which Crashmail II supports looks like this:

/fido/outbound
/fido/outbound.001
/fido/amiganet.027
/fido/fsxnet.015

It only speaks 5D BSO, nothing else. It does not support the weird binkd style
outbound which omits the hex extension. And it has no 4D BSO support.

I made minor changes in the Crashmail sources to outbound.c. My Crashmail II
uses Amiga Style Outbound, which is supported by binkd. No stupid hex
extensions or .pnt directories.
