I did that for another (Z2) node, and it did not work.  the point message
insisted on trying to call the point address, and of course failing.  Its a
pain when a pass thru message to a point comes in, but answering can be
faclitated by removing the point number from the message address (most times
)

Still, I would think with the route to statement in there it should work.

OK.  I was going to ask the question myself shortly.
