    I am having trouble with receiving messages. When I do a poll, I get this: 12/9 21:27:06 evnt BINKPOLL Error 2 opening ../ftn/inbound/0122FFC8.MO0

    It should have been ../data/ftn/inbound
    So all is good in the world. Figured it out right after posting.

    If it's not sending files, most likely it's an sbbsecho.ini setting. Are you trying to use fileboxes maybe? Don't.

    The "example.com" in the error message definitely is a clue. It looks to me like you didn't have a BinkpHost value set for the uplink (in sbbsecho.ini), so binkit was trying to use DNS-based FTN->IP lookup.

    Yeah thats what I had thought too, but it was correct. SBBS would send echomail and netmail to the hub without issue, that error only occurred while sending netmail to anyone other than the hub in zone 24, I had direct shutoff.
