Was that with Arnold as the Barbarian? He is a boy in real life.

That's my bad...I meant IBN.

With the PVT flag showing, BinkD won't send mail to your system, it will
send it host routed instead. Even setting the netmail to DIRECT won't
change that (DB also has a setting that asks if I want to send netmail
host routed and it is set to NO).

Nope, not the RC node, see above.

Your ZC, (Scott?) has apparently sent out a different zone seg...your
listing shows with a PVT flag in my copy of nodelist.251. Either that or
our ZC has manipulated the Z3 seg...

Heh...so was Scott and a couple of others. Thanks for the thought though.

See the D'Bridge echo. I'm there, trying to get DB working the way I'd
like it to. Being a three package software sysop (IREX, FastEcho and
GoldED) previously, I have to familiarize myself with a new package before
it becomes perfect. Meanwhile I'm online, whereas I was offline for
various reasons concerning the old package (including OS).
