   When I reply by netmail to that message with the point number, GoldEd   
   automatically uses the point address as the destination. So since the header   
   of a packed message doesn't have room for the point number part of the FTN   
   address, it seems the address from the MSGID is used for this. So it doesn't   
   seem like a good idea to add a random point number to the MSGID, unless it   
   really exists in the nodes system configuration, or it is ignored by the   
   systems software...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
