   It sounds like your point node's tosser isn't decompressing compressed mail   
   bundles properly, perhaps because you're both using an incompatible archiver;   
   or they have a misconfigured Compress.Cfg/Tosser.   
      
   SEND NOARC's only a band-aid fix because everybody Zip-pack's mail these days,   
   so your point node will encounter problems when other systems outside your   
   zone:net/node address mail to them.
