Well it sort of does, but it doesn't help.......;-) A Mail bundle is just a
ZIP file with a name specific to the NEXT HOP node as far as Routing is
concerned, but even then it can be kludged depending on the relationship of
YOUR node to the target Node. 

One thing I can think of causing this is where you are packing Mail for an
other net address, but your system does not have an address within that
Othernet for YOUR system. In this case you need to ensure SQUISH.CFG
contains and address for YOUR node within that other net, and that then
matches up with the NETWORK addressing of a target node.

Are you able to provide some actual examples of file names used for these
othernet addresses?

So what happens to the created Mail bundles, where do they actually end up
and how (IE via what routing) do they get there?

I note that your ROUTE.CFG had NOCOMP for several othernet addresses, what
happens to the mail for those addresses, as they should not be
compressed...

I have never used an AMA Mailer in my 15+ years of Fidonet, so I have never
had to think about what should be happening in these situations........;-)

Cheers............pk.
