Subj : Binkit Issues To : All From : Dumas Walker Date : Fri Aug 29 2025 13:33:05 (1) if a node is set to BinkpPoll = false *but* the system has an outbox defined *and* sbbsecho or binkit has moved the packets for that node into said outbox, binkit will poll the node anyway. (a) I don't think it should be moving outbound mail packets into the outbox... I think that is normally only for "non-mail" files (b) regardless, if a node is set to BinkpPoll = false, binkit shouldn't be trying to connect to it. I use BinkpPoll = false when I have nodes that can call in fine but where the mailers don't answer incoming calls correctly, for example. (2) Don't know what is causing this one... will include output... but I have a node where my system tries sending a bunch of mail but where you can see only two packets are reported sent, and no errors except "We got an M_EOB, but there are still 1 files pending M_GOT" (which I thought could be ignored) are displayed: JSexec v3.21a-Linux master/123f2d28a - Execute Synchronet JavaScript Module Compiled Jul 12 2025 20:59 with GCC 12.2.0 Loading configuration files from /home/bbs/ctrl JavaScript-C 1.8.5 2011-03-31 JavaScript: Creating runtime: 8388608 bytes Reading script from /home/bbs/exec/binkit.js /home/bbs/exec/binkit.js compiled in 0.00 seconds BinkIT/2.41 invoked with options: -l 618:250/39 Attempting poll for node 618:250/39@micronet JSBinkP/4 callout to 618:250/39@micronet started Connecting to 618:250/39@micronet at gcbbs.net:24554 Peer version: Mystic/1.12A48 Authentication successful: secure Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TH0 (250.1KB) We got an M_EOB, but there are still 1 files pending M_GOT Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.FR0 (250.1KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SA0 (250.7KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SU0 (259.1KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.MO0 (252.6KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TU0 (257.9KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.WE0 (250.7KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TH1 (260.0KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.FR1 (250.6KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SA1 (263.0KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SU1 (274.5KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.MO1 (267.4KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TU1 (250.1KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.WE1 (275.6KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.FR2 (255.4KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SA2 (259.2KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.MO2 (281.2KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TU2 (269.3KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.WE2 (250.7KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TH2 (254.3KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SA3 (269.2KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SU2 (267.3KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.MO3 (257.7KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TH3 (252.6KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.FR3 (260.1KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SU3 (279.9KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TU3 (262.9KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.WE3 (281.3KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TH4 (213.7KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.FR4 (236.2KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SA4 (156.9KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SU4 (69.5KB) Sent file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.SU4 (69.5KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.MO4 (151.1KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.TU4 (95.6KB) Sending file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.WE4 (68.5KB) Sent file: /sbbs/fido/out.26a/0000ffda.WE4 (68.5KB) /home/bbs/exec/binkit.js executed in 12.32 seconds FYI, all of the packets listed exist on this end. I am going to try this node with binkd and see what happens. (3) binkit is "hanging" sometimes when it hits a node it cannot connect to, maxing out a whole CPU until I force-stop the sbbs instance -- this is related to problem #1 and would probably be fixed if #1 was working right. That said, I remember asking for a fix a while back to have binkit time when it takes too long to connect, but that is not working in this case.
