Hey Tommi!

You told us you want?

 TK> But anyway I want to process all mail, not only unarchived mail.

Maybe i misunderstood you 'cause i'm not that deep in the hpt tossing features.

If you accept unsecure echomail as secure it would be tossed to badmail because
the echo is not linked to an unknown node.

If you need that feature (toss unsec packed NM) only for that node you could
achive that by using a hotfix dirty hack and setup passwords for that node for
both mailer connect and packet password. The password system was designed to
seperate between unsecure and secure but you can misuse it to accept unsecured
NM from one special node.
