That is for gated       email. Scan goes before pack. I'm not sure if I need via or just the node       number. A lot of netmail goes to things like 1:40/150 and is going via       1:229/426.               > If you're trying to route all Fidonet netmail through Nick Andre, then        > what you have above is correct.
