the netmail was just the carrier for the attached segment...

there are, however, notification netmails sent back that may need to be
handled... my RC always sends back a notification of successful processing
of my segs... if there is a problem, i will get a notification to that
effect... in one of my setups, my nodes can send in their own nodeseg just
like a hub send hubsegs, NCs send netsegs, RC send regionsegs and ZCs send
zonesegs... in those cases, those notification messages i mention above
will need to be handled... forcing stuff to an outbox is a bandaid... one
really should use a tool to import the MSG generated by makenlng into one's
local netmail base if their schtuff doesn't support the traditional
mailer/system MSG format netmail area...

jus' sayin'...
