your mail tosser should create them as needed and then only for the zones that
mail is destined to... in some cases, a mailer may remove them when there is
no more mail in them to be sent but i don't recall if the argus family does
this or not... i have seen it in my taurus but only fleetingly and only once...

hunh? are you talking about in some of your node entries in echocfg? i was
looking for the line from your sbbsecho.cfg file...

 IS> ROUTE_TO is set to my provider 1:340/400

can you post those lines, too, please? i'm looking to see what happens with
netmail to nodes that you do not have specific routing for...

ahhh... yes, that complicates things a little more... right now i'm thinking
that sbbsecho will hopefully see those and pack them into BSO/FLO style and
set them where they need to be for delivery... i think we're getting down to
your route_to lines missing default (aka catch all) routing... that's why i
wanted to see the above two mentioned sets of lines from your sbbsecho.cfg
file ;)
