 I was altering Christians FD routing file, as per instructions from JT,
 as the routed netmail was not getting passed on and was just siting on
 his system. I lost connection part way through figuring it out.

 By the time I got back to his system to finish the job, he must have
 done a scan and I did not realise.

 What I should also have done was to delete ALL messages prior to a
 given date from his netmail folder, cos when it did pack things up, it
 got EVERY message from the start to the end of the folder and routed
 the LOT to 640/305.

 I have checked, and it is working properly and passing routed  netmail
 to 640/305 & 712/610 as was the intention.

 What a stuffup!!
 How many years do I have to spend in the sin bin ???

Apologies
Niels
