    From Joseph Larsen@1:154/700 to All on Saturday, January 06, 2018 11:38:18
    I'm having problems with my Daydream and Impulse FTN settings. For some reason they keep sending out dupes. I don't understand why. Here's my binkd.conf:

    If someone could take a look at it, i'd appreciate it.

    Thanks,
    Joseph

    It has to be the mailer. Here is my script to toss/scan:

    #!/bin/bash
    export DDECHO=/home/dd/configs/dd-echo.cfg
    export DAYDREAM=/home/dd
    cd /home/dd/fido
    /home/dd/utils/ddecho scan
    /home/dd/utils/ddecho pack
    /home/dd/utils/ddecho toss

    It has to be the mailer.

    I'm 101% sure it is not the mailer. The mailer just sends what the tosser tells
    it to send.

    Hi Joseph!

    in the tosser scanning out mail that it should not be...
    It has to be the mailer.

    Why exactly?

    Probability that it is BinkD is very small.
    What does the logs say??

    It could be for example that the user BinkD runs under cannot unlink the files. In this case BinkD cannot delte the file, so it will stay in the directory. That would be a clear case of the error sitting in front of the PC.
