Apparently boss-routing feature was added to SBBSecho just for you:
https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/45ced2a3b39d30cbb8c909e66e063ceeff05e636

I suppose it may be possible to route to netmail a non-linked node.  I don't recall the original request/discussion surrounding this change, but the commit message refers to you, specifically.
