Hi Sean,

sr> Is there anyway to tell Squish not to route netmails,
sr> ie not touch them at all.

Have a real close read of the Squish instructions, the commandline parameters
are VERY subtle. In particualr note the SQUASH option -

  SQUASH    For a BinkleyTerm system, the SQUASH command packs
            messages from the NetMail areas, scans the outbound
            areas, performs mail routing, and compresses packets.

            For a FrontDoor-style system, the SQUASH command
            compresses packets, scans the NetMail area, creates
            ARCmail attach messages, and optionally kills any
            orphaned archives.

            If the SQUASH command is specified on the same command
            line as IN and OUT, the single pass MaxMsgs mode can
            also be used to limit outbound packet sizes.

In a nutshell, if you are runing FD style outbound, then you can't so this,
however if you are runing BSO, then you can. Just use IN and OUT but don't
include the SQUASH option and with BSO will ignore Netmail FOR THAT PASS.
However note that to use SQUISH to PACK outbound, you need SQUASH, which
implies a Netmail area pass.

Sometimes it just takes the right combination of multiple passes to achieve the
result you desire.

The other sneaky way to do this is to use multiple Netmail areas and make sure
SQUISH only sees an empty one or the one you don't care if it touches.

Cheers...............pk.
