You only need one of those mailers. I'd can Irex  and use binkd.

binkd works on hex addressing. The conversion for decimal 901 is hex 385.
Sbbsecho puts it in that folder automatically which it should.

I would first look at your binkd.cfg and make sure the following are set:

domain fidonet c:\\sbbs\\fido\\outbound 1
domain Dixienet c:\\sbbs\\fido\\outbound 1

binkd will create all the outbound.??? folders for other networks.

address 1:3828/12.0@fidonet
address 901:1/11.0@dixienet


Make sure you also have a binkd style nodelist to tell what the INA of each
node is. 

I would also like to look at your sbbsecho.ini file to make sure you have
zone-blind set correctly.  Also, sbbsecho should create a *.*LO and/or *.*UT
file.  Let us know what those are as well...
