subject: Skip Poll?

Hi g00r00,

I have a couple of nodes setup that I only need to send a file to every now & then, along with a point who polls me to pickup mail.

Would it be possible to add a "Poll: YES|NO" option to the node's binkp settings that would skip it from being included in "./mis poll forced"?

I mean, it doesn't hurt anything that I poll them once an hour (in the case of the point I just get "No BINKP hostname defined for 1:2/3.4" even though the node is set to Export Type: Hold).  But it would be more efficient if it were possible to exclude nodes I know I'll never receive anything from.

Thanks for all you do!


Jay
