I found this in sysop.txt (the ASCII version of sysop.gui):

G  l  o  b  a  l  :     F  i  d  o  N  e  t  :     O  r  i  g  i  n  s

An origin line is always added to echomail messages that are exported from
BBBS, either with the BMSG or the
BOGUS commands. Origin line can (and should)
contain information about the node the message originated from. You can, for
example, place your BBS name and phone number here. The origin line that is
used can be defined separately for each conference with the Global:
Conferences: Origin-field. You can specify up to ten origin lines.

(Note from Janis: so up to 10 origin lines are possible )

NOTE! Your nodenumber will be added automatically to the end of
the string you enter here, so DO NOT write it on the origin line. For example,
if you specify "BCG-Box" as your origin line, the last line added to your
===clip===

I would try adding origin lines here in the same order you have defined your
node numbers/nets

Happy New Year to you Tony :)

Take care,
Janis
