Mi> I thought i had my netmail configured just fine, but when i tried to send
Mi> a netmail recently to someone in Fidonet Zone1 from my Node in Zone2, i
Mi> got this

Mi> BINKOUT Running native timed event: ?binkit               BINKOUT
Mi> BinkIT/2.42 invoked with options:                 BINKOUT Attempting
Mi> callout for 1:123/9999@fidonet, file:
Mi> /.../data/fido/outbound.001/007b270f.cut BINKOUT JSBinkP/4 callout
Mi> to 1:123/9999@fidonet started   BINKOUT Connecting to
Mi> 1:123/9999@fidonet at f9999.n123.z1.binkp.net:24554 BINKOUT
Mi> Connection to f9999.n123.z1.binkp.net:24554 failed (Error: Name or
Mi> service not known). BINKOUT Timed event: '?binkit' returned 0


Mi> so i had expected it to connect to my zone2 uplink and deliver the netmail
Mi> or crash the netmail directly to the zon1 node, but it didn't.

Mi> my echocfg looks like this https://imgur.com/a/Ij9kby9

Mi> how do i get the routing right, so my netmail to a zone1 node gets routed
Mi> through my zone2 uplink?

Mi> or is it about the fidonet nodelist and the zone1 node is not yet in the
Mi> nodelist and otherwise would the netmail been crashed directly to the
Mi> zone1 node?

That looks like a temporary node number...
