It's still not feature complete, but I've pushed the
source code to my `ginko` binkp mailer to github:

https://github.com/fat-dragon/ginko

A short list of things that I need to add:

1.  TLS support (should be easy)
2.  Interlocking between polling threads and receiving threads
    ^This is a little harder
3.  Output worker pool -- this should be easy
4.  A polling scheduler -- this should also be easy
5.  Notifications for both scanning and poking -- kinda easy

That's basically it.  I meant to do most of this stuff
a few weeks ago, but haven't really gotten around to it,
mostly because I've been super busy since the pandemic
hit.

One will note that this doesn't use the seemingly-standard
"BSO" conventions for coordination with external software.
That's by design; this is really pretty specialized to a
very specific environment.  It is designed to run as an "edge"
service, talking to legacy BINKP implementations and hiding
all of that from other software.

Anyway, if anyone wants to see the code, have fun.
