   Hi Paul,   
      
   On 2017-09-16 16:22:00, you wrote to me:

   You can't.   
      
    PQ> FMail completely ignores a FREQ from me to my main node,   
      
   That's by design. Freq's are not really the domain of a mail processor/tosser.   
      
   A BSO mailer needs a .req file to send a file request to a node. So if you   
   would pack a netmail with a freq flag into a .pkt file nothing that you expect   
   would happen except of course the .pkt file would be send to the node. Where   
   it would be handled by the nodes tosser, and not by the mailer or freq   
   processor...   
      
   Bye, Wilfred.
