Your right. Strange... Maybe they are filtered from the segments before they
make it in the published nodelist?

I wouldn't draw that conclusion just from what is in the nodelist. ;)

That's the whole purpose of the test: Find out which systems on "all" possible
routes still filter/bounce encrypted netmail.

 AA> Nah.. best to stick with known systems that show ENC.

It isn't the destinations we are testing but the systems along the routes...

Bye, Wilfred.
