It means that your FE config has an unknown area and so it won't toss
that message, instead giving you the error message.

Message #6 is in a packet that you will find in the area you've configed
to store untossed mail. It may be among several messages or it may only be
one message.

To create an area that you don't have defined; the easiest way is to allow
the link that sent it to you to create an area. Then if you re-toss your
mail, the message should go into an area (echo) now created by FE.

Or, you can peek into message #6 with an ASCII editor and see what area
the message is for and manually create the area (Echo) in FE config, then
retoss the mail.

Area = Echo
