   With a message echo, you can set those as passthru and the message is not   
   stored on your system.   
      
   With a file echo, doesn't the file have to be stored *somewhere* in order   
   for the subscribing nodes to pick it up and, once every node that is   
   subscribed has picked it up, doesn't it still just sit on your system?   
      
   A network I am in has added a file echo that could contain large files that   
   I don't want to keep beyond the point where any downlinks have picked the   
   file up, but I am not certain there is a way to automate such a process.   
      
   I know if the files exist in that nodes outbox, they get deleted, but I am   
   pretty sure that is not how file echo attaches work (i.e. they are not   
   stored in the outboxes of individual nodes).   
      
   Thanks.
