Hi Bo!

I see your netmail in my log Bo, so this is what I think happened:

A while ago, Thom decided to be a private node with no information in the
nodelist to contact him (mail would be routed to him). That would not work
with the software I was using to process the Nodelist at the time (NLMaint)
as far as having a private node in the ZIN section.

To make a long story short, to keep Thom's echolist entry in the Z1
nodelist, I had to put _my_ phone number in the Echolist's entry in
nodelist.  Thom and I tested out a feature of BBBS to "remap
netmail" to a new address and it seemed to work fine to get him the
netmail for the echolist that might have come in via the phone line here.

What we both MISSED though until last month, was that BBBS _also_ must have
been replacing the "To" in the message, from "To:
Echolist", to "To: Thom LaCosta" which caused the Robot to
not process mail correctly.

That netmail remap has been removed for about a month, so resubmit your
echo update and it should process correctly now :)

Take care,
Janis
