I use the 'add akas' field because I toss all mail and files as 1:261/38, but I
have an additonal aka of 1:261/100.

so in my external.bbb file I have:

; gr areatag                    bbbs name                     add akas    flags
export

X 10TH_AMD                      fido.10TH_AMD                 1:261/100   SV
1:123/500 1:140/1 [... etc. etc. etc.]

Because of the way I was listed in the nodelist very much earlier, I probably
needed that 'add akas' field filled out, but not so much any more. I just
didn't bother to change it.

Take care,
Janis
