I don't think that receiving connections is the problem.  I think that sending
is the problem.  The issue with crash mail is that the sending nodes' mailer
needs to know how to connect to you.  I would think that reading the address
from the nodelist would work, but I don't know of a mailer that will do that. 
I know that when I ran binkd, I could create a binkd.list from the nodelist,
and use it as an include file to the binkd.conf file.

With mystic, that is another matter.
