 PE> I have no idea what you guys are doing at your point addresses.
 PE> For all I know you are running BBS's.

  But that would *still* work. If you get mail to my *point* under the
wrong name, you would still send it on. You would only remap if you
got mail under my name, *without* a point number.

 PE> This is the problem. I can't say remap only stuff going to
 PE> 3:711/934. I have to say 3:711/934.*. 

  Oh. In that case, no-remaps is probably better. It's pretty easy to
get the name wrong (as you have just proved). Someone should write a
proper public domain remapper...

  BTW, what's the point sending Netmail without the privacy flag? 
IMO, netmail should have the privacy flag fixed by definition.

 PE> BTW, this message meant for Bob, not Rod, but it's too late to
 PE> change it. BFN. Paul.

  I should have read it in full before I started to reply, but I know
who I am now, so it didn't matter (I looked on my driver's licence).

Regards,
Bob
