SEND NORMAL NOARC is a NO-OP in Squish's route.cfg file....  You can
consider this a "feature" (as I belive Scott would) or a bug, but
it won't get fixed any time soon.

 MP> Send            Normal World

And so, this line ends up packing the mail for 2320/105.999 .....

I believe you can use any other flavor of mail besides normal to get things
to work.  I would suggest the following four lines in your route.cfg file
if you really want uncompressed normal mail for node 1:2320/105.999....

CHANGE NORMAL DIRECT 1:2320/105.999
SEND DIRECT NOARC 1:2320/105.999
SEND NORMAL WORLD
CHANGE DIRECT NORMAL 1:2320/105.999

Enjoy.....

Take care.....
