I know what it does (not well). I just don't really understand why it's the _only_ solution for Platinum Express, and haven't really gotten a good answer to that question besides basically "it just is".

If it's only being used as a binkp (or even FD/Attach style) mailer, then any other mailer with the same capability should be able to handle that same job (and probably do it better/more reliably). *shrug*
