Hello Bj”rn.

For one, there is a Hold keyword:

<<

Hold
        Defines a node which is operational but cannot be publically
        contacted This is expected to be a temporary condition.

        Mail may be sent to such nodes, routed via its Hub, Host or
        Coordinator, or held locally by the originating node until the
        Hold keyword is removed.

Which of course you *know* to be unacceptable. Letters and dots in the
telephone number field of the public node list are an even bigger "no
no" than Numbers with country code 0.

You are just going against the grain submitting frivolities like that.
