This was just added in alpha 24 or 25. What I am not sure of is if mutil can
pack netmail for an unlisted node in the outbound to be picked up or sent. I
suspect that mutil will route netmail for an unlisted node.

I am going to exclude your node from routing and see what happens to it. If
it gets placed in the outbound I'll try to poll you and see what I get.. :)
