"Thru" is the echomail (also lazy) way of typing
"through".  

Now that you have got the difference straight between E- and Net- mail,
you probably should do some more testing.  :)  Dan and I think that we
have established that one can* use the magic spell I gave you to do
net-mail through the qwk door, using our beloved BW readers...  :)
I was able to send him netmail written offline in BW and u/l'ed to Doc's
in the qwk door, which he then replied to, and I received it at Doc's.

I don't know why the netmail you did online didn't get to me, though.  I
received a netmail from Dan, without problem, both at Doc's and* at
Chowdanet.  But so far, we haven't tested from Doc's to Chowda.  I am
considering sending myself netmail from Doc's to me at Chowdanet to see
if I will get it.  It will be an interesting experiment.  :)
