WD> Hi Paul,
WD>
WD> You just sent me a netmailed message about a possible node in Z2.
WD>
WD> I responded to your message and your system dumps the netmail back on my
WD> system with this change that "Paul Hayton 3:770/100" is changed to "Paul
WD> Hayton 2:2/3".

I have looked back at the logging and will drop a file called pingpong.txt in your inbound.

As far as I can tell you are sending me netmail addressed to 2:2/3.0 and my system is simply routing it back to you as per routing rules I have set to default to route Zone 2 netmail traffic via your system (asides direct Z2 links I have)

The logs show netmails bounced back and forth three times before it ended. I guess by you?

Here's a section of the text file I'll send you
