you're misunderstanding... to the client software, the reply looks like an
article... when JAMNNTPd gets it and sees 1) that it is in the netmail area 2)
that it has a destination address in it then JAMNNTPd will (of course) place it
in the JAM Netmail area and convert the destination address to a proper FTN
destination address pair in the TO: field of the JAM base... from there, it is
up to the tosser to export it as netmail...

it should be... you just have to remember to change the area name to the
netmail area and add the destination name and address on the first line... i'm
not sure how multiple destinations would be entered... i haven't played with
that part of JAMNNTPd very much...
