A few things.  what are the switches you're using with sbbsecho.  Binkd is a
BSO mailer and you must use the 'f' switch.  Make sure in echocfg you've chosen
Binkley as the mailer.  File Attach no longer works in v3.0

In your binkd.cfg, what outbound folder are you using to send?  If your only
using one domain, make sure your entry for outbound looks like this.

domain fidonet C:\\FD\\OUTBOUND 1  (Change your path and if you're in zone 1.
If you in another zone, just replace the 1 with whatever zone #.)

If you're in multiple FTN's always use the same outbound folder and keep the
zone # the same on each line.  binkd will create the proper folders it needs to
send to different zones.
