Its kind of a fuzzy issue. Like, what does Direct flag even do... 
I would think Direct should try to poll the system directly, and you would
use direct with crash flag.

I just was trying to figure out with Fidonet and its funky netmail routing,
if i could set all netmail to Direct/Crash and deliever the mail myself. With
everything on the internet this is how it should work. Allow unsecure mail,
and direct netmail and all netmail will deliever.

I think its something worth reviewing.

Just a thought!
