OK... although I use binkd as my mailer, certain rules will still apply for
sbbsecho.  If you go to echocfg > Nodes > choose any node... under Status it
will give you options to start.  Configure that for any nodes you're directly
linked to and choose any of the three options.  I normally have all those
listed as CRASH. Now, for other nodes I have ROUTE-TO statments to each of your
hubs.  Therefore, if I want to send a message to 3:xxx/xxx and it's not listed
in echocfg, then that will be routed through my hub.  Now, being you're
familiar with FrontDoor and I want to crash to that node, I use the FM editor. 
You have to compile FD's nodelist each week but it's small. Naturally, go
through FD's setup entering all the information needed.  Once you do that, use
FM and it will allow you to set the CRASH bit.  Don't worry that it saves in
*.MSG format, sbbsecho will convert it as long as you've set the F switch. 

That's my work-around... YMMV
