Nope, all mail/files are put on hold for downlinks.

If it gets to be over 7 days since a poll (outside July, August and Dec, Jan)
attempt to poll a few days running if that fails system puts the node on pause
passes me a msg to put them as hold in the nodelist segment. After 14 days
they
go as down and 21 days they are remarked out.

Sometimes (must get around to looking at that) my system will notify me that
they have polled me after this and I will remove the 'remark' char in the
nodelist and unpause them for mail/files.

Must figure out how to fully automate this all some day.
