Hello Oli,

That's an interesting idea but you'd have to communicate the location of that
inbound filebox to your tosser somehow.

 Ol> I don't understand how this is connected to packet passwords and
 Ol> inbound dirs.

If we had a reliable/secure session we wouldn't need packet passwords or
inbound directories randomly placed around the file system.

 Ttyl :-),
