    Sent one. Can't remember if I set my host to route netmail through or if I
    just set it to crash so that will be a test for both of us.

    No, those are path and seen by lines that explain how your message reached his node. :)

    I am going to look up your node details and send your point a netmail via the boss. You'll need to look into what is happening there.

    how do you know you didn't get them? have you checked both of your inbounds? what does your mailer logs say for a connection from his address? what does your mail tosser say?

    there is a specific path to follow to see what happened ;)

    FWIW: someone routed a netmail through here the other day... my system didn't have the first clue how to route it further and was trying to send it to your point direct... when i found it, i manually redirected it to your boss address and you should have been able to pick it up from there... if everything worked, that is... i'm still contemplating how to handle those... my default routing should already handle them but apparently something is amiss somewhere...

    I have sent 2 kinds.
    Routed and direct.

    With the direct NM I had the same issue.
    It tried to send it direct ... I guess hence the name :)

    yeah, there is that... but there was also, back in the bad old days, when numerous mailers were intelligent enough to know that unless it had specific contact data for the destination point system, that direct netmail to a point would be sent direct to the point's boss... sadly much of that intelligence has been lost...

    in the case of BSO, tools like "bonk" and "son of bonk" would be used and they were fairly intelligent AIR from other's discussions... unfortunately i'm not aware of such tools for today's BSO using systems... certainly nothing for *nix :(

    2020-04-22 14:51:38 Routing NetMail (5915.msg) to 1:261/38


    that one was fine... looking at the Packing line, the message contained only the PRIvate bit so it was properly routed...

    i'm not sure how the one richard sent routed to rick was marked as crash... i suspect because richard has my system configured for crash status... let's test that... please set my record in your tosser for crash status instead of normal status and try sending another one... i want to see if the netmail arrives here with "attr: 0003" meaning it is PRIvate and CRAsh...

    if that doesn't pack the netmail with the CRAsh bit set, then there's another setting in the BBS FTN networking config that allows to "send netmail with crash status"... try enabling that and sending another test netmail to rick's point... one of these two settings will pack the message with the CRAsh bit set... hopefully you're not yet running the latest fixed tosser code... i'll check my logs in a little while... i have a few things to do so will be away from the system for a bit...

    thanks for helping to test this! :)

    I turned off default routing last night ans sent a series of tests
    to see what would happen, including one to you at /12. Did you happen
    to receive it?

    i did and replied just a little bit ago...

    I see the node the browser brought up was 1:3636/12? I sent it there at 1415hrs.

    That can't be right. Quick! Before he wakes... check again!

    Cheers,

    i haven't seen it yet... when and how did you send it?

    I see the node the browser brought up was 1:3636/12? I sent it there at
    1415hrs.

    3634?? other than that, yes, that's my system... it still has not arrived here, AFAICT...

    your system is 1:340/202 in portland, oregon, right?

    searching my mailer logs (via grep), the only entries i find containing your 1:340/202 address are the few hundred where my system was trying to deliver that one stuck netmail to your point... the only other entry is the very last one where i renamed the packet to your address in the hope that it would be delivered to your node and forwarded to your point... we know how that came out and the bug that caused it has now been eradicated so it should not be a problem any more...

    i would check your mailer's outbound directory and logs and see if you can figure out:

    1. if the mail is still sitting there waiting to go out.

    2. if your system routed it to one of your links for
    further routing toward my system.

    if #1 is in play and your system is unable to connect here, please let me know:

    1. your system's IP number so i can check if it is blocked
    here for some reason... if your IP was blocked here, my
    delivery would not have been able to happen on the 20th.
    it is possible that your IP has been auto-blocked for
    some reason since then, though...

    2. what domain your system is trying to connect to... my
    old wpusa.dynip.com domain has been gone since the
    beginning of 2019... current nodelists should have my
    current proper domain in them...

    if #2 is in play, please let me know which system your's routed the netmail to...


    as a test, you can write a netmail message to "ping" at my 1:3634/12 address... if you send it routed, you *may* get responses from intermediate ping-capable systems along the route telling you that the message arrived there and was sent onward... if/when the ping message arrives here, my system will generate a response letting you know that the message did arrive here and it should show you the VIA lines from the intermediate systems that handled the netmail on its way here...


    ASIDE: ISTR that once upon a time i knew and possibly had a link with a rick smith in the portland, OR, area... this was likely related to RemoteAccess BBS, FrontDoor, or FastEcho... are you he? if so, it is good to see you again! please also accept my apologies for not remembering/recognizing you...

    LOL!

    probably just a typo in the message but it could be that it was also typoed when entering the message... if the message was indeed addressed to 1:3636/12 and routed upstream, it is either sitting in some blackhole somewhere because net 3636 no longer exists and/or someone's system has tried to bounce it back and that's not gone swimmingly...

    if the message was marked direct or crash to the wrong net, it is probably still sitting in rick's outbound trying to go but not finding the needed information to do so...

    that is another valid address for my system but yeah, still no inbound contact here from your mailer... did you send it routed or crash/direct?
