There is a toggle in BBBS's setup to       disable that and this is what the BBBS documentaion has to say about that.              === Cut ===       Global: FidoNet: BOGUS: Disable security       _______________________________________________________________________________              If this option is enabled, BOGUS will not pay any attention to echomail or       netmail destinations or packet passwords. This is useful when a downlink       has you setup incorrectly and you want to toss the mail anyway.              WARNING: This is a very dangerous option to enable! You are very likely to       get and generate duplicate messages or experience other problens with this       enabled. Please be sure you know what you are doing before you turn this on!       === Cut ===              If you routed that netmail to BBBS in a .pkt with a DestAddr of 1:261/38 then       it would be tossed as expected and forwarded on toward the destination.               Ttyl :-),        Al              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 103/705 120/340 123/131 129/305 153/135 757 802       SEEN-BY: 153/6809 154/10 203/0 221/0 1 6 360 226/30 227/114 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 452 550 664 1016 230/0 240/1120 2100 5138 5411       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 5853 249/206 317 261/38 280/464 5003 292/854 8125       SEEN-BY: 317/3 320/219 322/757 335/364 342/200 396/45 423/81 120 712/848       SEEN-BY: 770/1 2452/250 2454/119 4500/1       PATH: 153/757 221/6 1 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
