I haven't looked at the input .pkt so here is my guess.

Was the packet addressed to 1:261/38? The packet header I mean. The messages
within the packet could have been echomail or netmail addressed to any node
and those message will be forwarded on as usual.

Some tossers will toss any old packet you send there but most look for packets
addressed to itself (1:261/38 in this case) and will then do what it needs to
do with those messages. Some tossers can/will pass on packets as they are to
another node if it is so addressed but that usually requires an agreement and
extra configuration.

If that packet was addressed to 1:261/38 (the packet, not the messages inside)
the tosser there will likely act on it as needed.
