how is a user supposed to be able to respond to an echomail message via netmail
if they cannot see the node number of the user they are responding to?? netmail
is not limited to sysops even though a lot of sysops didn't allow their users
access to netmail back in the day... for many, it was limited because of not
understanding routing and thus not wanting to incur more cost for their
system's connections to other systems over POTS...
