   OK... although I use binkd as my mailer, certain rules will still apply for   
   sbbsecho.  If you go to echocfg > Nodes > choose any node... under Status it   
   will give you options to start.  Configure that for any nodes you're directly   
   linked to and choose any of the three options.  I normally have all those   
   listed as CRASH. Now, for other nodes I have ROUTE-TO statments to each of your   
   hubs.  Therefore, if I want to send a message to 3:xxx/xxx and it's not listed   
   in echocfg, then that will be routed through my hub.  Now, being you're   
   familiar with FrontDoor and I want to crash to that node, I use the FM editor.    
   You have to compile FD's nodelist each week but it's small. Naturally, go   
   through FD's setup entering all the information needed.  Once you do that, use   
   FM and it will allow you to set the CRASH bit.  Don't worry that it saves in   
   *.MSG format, sbbsecho will convert it as long as you've set the F switch.    
      
   That's my work-around... YMMV
