subject: Mail for unknown points

Hello Deon,

Yes, I think so. The nopack option also works. Those messages are left in the netmail area so I can readdress them to the proper address or if the point doesn't exist bounce it back to the sender.

 DG> On FSX Hub 3 my filter that rejects netmail to non-existent nodelist
 DG> nodes is the same filter that rejects messages to non-existent points.

 DG> This might be helpful..

Yes, this is a great solution. It's a little too complex for me so I'm going to have to move that forward a little at a time.

 Ttyl :-),
