Adding mail and file to the outbound is done in two passes. The first pass is to put all
outgoing mail into the ~/var/queue/z.n.n.p directory, the last letters are
replaced by the digits of the nodenumber.
The extension can be qqq for packed mail, nnn for normal unpacked mail, hhh for
hold unpacked mail and ccc for crash unpacked mail. Adding mail to this tmp
directory can allways be done, even if one of the nodes you are adding mail
hold unpacked mail and ccc for crash unpacked mail. Adding mail and files to
this directory can allways be done, even if one of the nodes you are adding mail
for is having a mail session with your system. This is a safe operation.<br>
In the second pass, these temp files are really added to the outbound, but
only if the destination node is not locked, ie. there is no current mailsession
with that node. If there is a mail session going, these temp files will stay in
the temp directory and are added to the outbound in a later run of
<strong>mbfido</strong>. If adding the mail to the outbound succeeds
the temporary file is removed.
