The .bsy file exists. It has a recent date/time stamp. If binkit isn't running (nor BinkD or any other mailer or SBBSecho), then it should be safe to just delete the .bsy file.

Is it normal to keep seeing that when BINKP polls? I'm just trying to understand why the error is occuring.

No, it's not normal. Did you delete the file yet?

it is not an error, really... it could be that sbbsecho is tossing mail at the time that your mailer goes to call out to that node... when sbbsecho has completed running, it will remove the bsy files and your mailer can then connect to that system... the bsy files are a standard mechanism to prevent one tool from doing something while another tool is working in the area...

could his sbbsecho be crashing and leaving stale bsy files behind??

That's a possibility. Examing the contents of the file (if it's non-zero length) should provide a clue.

i guess we can only hope that echto sees this other portion of the thread and takes the initiative to investigate further ;)
