First, are you sure "FIDOHAMHAM" is a legit echotag? It doesn't seem like it
would be.

The format of your areas.bbs file should be:
[SCFG INTERNAL CODE] [ECHOTAG] [LINK] [...]
So maybe something removed all the spaces on you? I could see the above being something more like:
FIDOHAM HAM 1:218/700
So the first value is the internal code of the sub-board used in SCFG, which I believe is limited to 8 characters (although it seems you're using the prefix FIDO also, so it can be more in that case all of your sub-board codes in that group will be prefixed with FIDO also. The second value is the actual fidonet echotag as shown in your echolist. Then the third (and concurrent fields thereafter) are for your links. All three (or more) fields need at least one space between them.
If your areas.bbs is messed up, you may want to try exporting a new one, named something else so you don't overwrite your old one. Then check to make sure it exported properly before renaming it back to areas.bbs.
I got Same problem , with other Network too, but if i rename the PKT
from *.bad to *.pkt and Try Again it's Working
none of my network have password except one
Problem Seem to be intermitant

You need to either utilize a packet password or a secure mailer session. Apparently you're not utilizing a packet password for 1:218/700 and receiving bundles/packets in a non-secure mailer session.

Is the one link this is occurring with by chance a D'Bridge system?
One thing that has changed since sbbsecho v3 is that it does not allow for packet passwords to "slip by" any more.
If you're linked to a D'Bridge system, and they have a "Session Password" setup
with them, it (D'Bridge) will indeed also send that same password as a packet password - which sbbsecho will mark as bad until you manually add in the packet
password for that link to your config.
As far as I know D'Bridge has always done this, but it wasn't until sbbsecho v3
that it was noticed and other measures had to be taken. I think sbbsecho v2 used to ignore incoming packet passwords, and now it doesn't any more.

Yeah, no packet password, never had one of those before, but we use a session password which starts a secure session, so shouldn't the packets just go to the secure folder?
You said we need one OR the other... or is it AND?

Yes, they should.
Let me clarify: with SBBSecho v2, if the local link/node was notconfigured
with a packet password, then the incoming packet passwords were ignored (for that node). Otherwise (a password was configured), then the packet password had to match (was not ignored).
Now, with SBBSecho v3, the packet password always has to match the local configuration. If there's no local link/node configuration or the configured password is blank, then the packet password must also beblank.
They are not. After receiving a bunch of bundles from my uplink, sbbsecho processes the files and they end up as .bad files in the unsecure inbound folder.
If I rename the .bad files back to .pkt, move them to the inboundsecure folder,
and run sbbsecho then they are tossed correctly.
So for whatever reason binkit seems to be saving the files in the unsecure inbound folder even though I'm pretty sure they should be going into the secure
folder.
Here's a debug log from binkit showing encrypted conn and files moving
to _in
instead of _insec

It is of NO fault of sbbsecho v3. Just an extra configuration step to work around an oddity with D'Bridge links.

I would check sbbsecho.ini since that's where binkIT pulls the information from. What do you have for "SecureInbound" and "Inbound"?
I think you also have to make sure ftn_domains.ini lists all of your networks (which with your log snippet it seems you have this done already) and that those domains in ftn_domains.ini match what you have in binkit.ini.
Also, does this happen for both incoming connections as well as outgoing polls? Or do you only do it one way?

Then there is something wrong with your mailer (or its configuration), not SBBSecho.
Did you double check your configuration? I did not write binkit and I haven't run it (yet), so I'm not really in a position to say "I know it works", but it apparently is working as expected for others.
If I remember correctly, then Mystic also did the same thing. Messages comming from Mystic were also bounced here.

Incomming only. Keep in mind this setup was working for a brief time, but something changed. I'm talking with Kurt, he doesn't seem to be around this weekend, but I'm gonna have him set a packet password and see if that
makes a difference, the only issue is the packets are ending up in unsecure, even though I'm connecting with a session password to my uplink.
TIC files aren't getting moved because they DO have a password, and
since the packet password for my uplink is blank (True), then tickit doesn't toss the .tic files because they DO have a password.
I don't know, it seems wrong, but if adding a password to the packet
fixes the problem I'm gonna run with that. In the meantime I'm just
moving anything that lands in Inbound to SecureInbound, then running SBBSECHO.
Maybe it's possible he has always had a packet password setup for you, but switching to sbbsecho v3 is now seeing that and stopping it.
I would imagine if he did originally set you up with a packet password, it would be the same as your other passwords. If he's gone for the week, you could always give that a try.
I used pktdump.exe on the .bad packets, they have no password. My .TIC files have a password (in plain text). It's kind of a bummer because
Tickit and SBBSECHO both use the same packet password field, so if the packet password isn't the same on both, then one or the other won't
toss (unless I specify a different .cfg file for one or the other.
(but I'm lazy)

That fails, you'll probably have to wait till he comes back and can look at his
settings.
As I said above, try adding a packet password (using what you used to use as your tic password). It's possible one, or both of you have upgraded to sbbsecho
v3 recently. So when you send tics, you have to use a packet password (this was
Deuce's choice, and I argued it because of this very reason).
It's sounding more and more like this is indeed your issue. Deuce strongly argued that if you are going to use a TIC password, you should be using a packet password as well, so kept them as one in the same. My only real argument
was that it was going to mess up anyone's current configurations if they weren't using a packet password, but were using a tic password, once they upgraded.
Sorry it bit ya! ;)
Assuming you're running rev 1.44 (the latest), the following is the code in question (in binkit.js):
This "bp.authenticatd" is set by exec/load/binkp.js, so make sure you're using the latest version of that file too.
Anyway, you could add some more log() commands here to see if bp.authenticated is indeed 'secure', like you think it should be. Something like this:
log(LOG_DEBUG, "BinkP auth = " + bp.authenticated);

OK, so tried this, and the line is reporting " = <blank>" or nothing, which I assume means it's NOT secure.
The message pops up after receiving a packet and just before it determines where to place it I assume.

That is really odd. Looking at binkp.js, the 'authenticated' property should be either 'secure' or 'non-secure'. If we could get Deuce in here (that's his code), he could likely point out why and fix it easily if it's an issue in binkp.js (or binkit.js). *** hailing Deuce ***
