i was wondering about that... with the .qqq extension, that should be OK but
then the question comes about if FMail supports fileboxes and if so, where does
 it create the .qqq files? anything in a filebox is sent to the system assigned
 to that box... i've got one link, now, that is insisting on sharing one mailer
 with two different nodes and routing is broken such that they're sending my
system .out files for their other system where they are trying to route the
mail to... it is a mess and i'm not sure what else to say to get them to change
 their setup and use two binkd installs with different ports, directories and
fileboxes... it should be really easy to do with one binary and two different
config files but... back to the point, if something tries to create a temp file
 in the filebox and then rename it to whatever its proper name should be, binkd
 may have already sent it off since there's no semaphores to tell binkd to not
process that filebox at that point in time...
