I am pretty sure Synch uses a propriatary message base so I'm not sure HPT can
handle the tossing/packing part. I don't run a FLO mailer here so which
directory the netmail goes I'm unsure of.  If you're using GoldEd to create a
netmail then I can't see why Ssbbsecho even has to touch it. If I am in a hurry
I use FD's editor to create netmail.  Being I'm using *.MSG it gets saved
directly to my netmail folder where a SEM is created to tell my mailer and off
it goes.

Sorry I couldn't help you much past that...

Good luck.
