not even with the DIRect bit set?

easy...

route-to 1:blah/blah 1:* 2:* 3:* 4:* 5:* 6:*
route-to 30:blah/blah 30:*
route-to 42:blah/blah 42:* 43:*

the DIRect bit will override the above default routing... in each line, you
put in hub's address and then list each zone in that net...

 BG> Right now I can address a netmail or (regular msg) to
 BG> 30:2000/0 (skynet), and as soon as I hit ctrl-s to save it,
 BG> the send-to address changes back to my FIDONET hub.

in what editor? FM always "returns" to your main, number 1,
address... you can only change the address you are sending from _while_ you
are editing a message... once the message is saved, FM will
"revert" to the main address...

 BG> Is it route.fd or something else??

not sure yet... let's see how far we can get...
