2:240/1120 was down about 3 weeks... It uses Fastecho, which always strips
seenbys from interzone messages from 1:261/38.

CPD (Circular Path Detection)             * Nodes only *
--------------------------------------------------------
This  is  a method of preventing duplicate messages from
being processed and exported by your system. Each system
that forwards an echomail message adds  its  address  to
the  ^APATH  information  in  the  message.  If  CPD  is
enabled, FastEcho will consider  messages  that  already
have your address in them as duplicates while tossing.

The 'Circular Path Detection' in my Fastecho at 2:221/1 only checks PATH for
its own address, not the addresses where it exports messages.
