    well, that was fun and interesting... just found out that sbbsecho can and does route echomail... had a system that was linked here and then dropped out... i removed their entry from echocfg and thought that was all i needed to do... well, it wasn't... the node's number was still in the areas.bbs file so sbbsecho was still packing echomail for it... the thing was, since there was no node entry for that system any more, sbbsecho dutifully (re)routed the pkts to the system behind the 1:ALL system...perhaps echocfg could/should be checking the lines in the areas.bbs file and removing entries from the lines for nodes that no longer exist in sbbsecho.ini?```2021-05-06 15:34:42 SBBSecho 3.11-Linux r3.173 May 23 2020 GCC 7.5.0 (PID 25866) invoked with options: -ce2021-05-06 15:34:42 Configured: 7 archivers, 79 linked-nodes, 11 echolists2021-05-06 15:34:42 NetMail directory: /sbbs/ftn/netmail/2021-05-06 15:34:42 Secure Inbound directory: /sbbs/ftn/in/secure/2021-05-06 15:34:42 Non-secure Inbound directory: /sbbs/ftn/in/unsecure/2021-05-06 15:34:42 Outbound (BSO root) directory: /sbbs/ftn/out/fidonet2021-05-06 15:34:42 Read 251 areas from /sbbs/data/areas.bbs2021-05-06 15:34:42 Read 5 areas from /sbbs/data/badareas.lst2021-05-06 15:34:42 Read 258 echo statistics from /sbbs/data/echostats.ini[...]2021-05-06 15:34:42 Creating outbound packet from 1:3634/12 to 1:14/6: /sbbs/temp/sbbsecho/609444e1.pkt2021-05-06 15:34:42 Adding FIDOTEST message from Wilfred van Velzen (2:280/464) to packet for 1:14/6: /sbbs/temp/sbbsecho/609444e1.pkt2021-05-06 15:34:42 Appending outbound packet from 1:3634/12 to 1:14/6: /sbbs/temp/sbbsecho/609444e1.pkt2021-05-06 15:34:42 Adding ALLFIX_FILE message from Htick (2:230/150) to packet for 1:14/6: /sbbs/temp/sbbsecho/609444e1.pkt2021-05-06 15:34:42 Appending outbound packet from 1:3634/12 to 1:14/6: /sbbs/temp/sbbsecho/609444e1.pkt2021-05-06 15:34:42 Adding RBERRYPI message from druck (3:770/3) to packet for 1:14/6: /sbbs/temp/sbbsecho/609444e1.pkt2021-05-06 15:34:43 Finalizing outbound packet from

  • From Rob Swindell@1:103/705 to GitLab note in main/sbbs on Sun May 9 22:41:12 2021
    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues/261#note_1980

    Before April 19 2016, any linked nodes (addresses linked to areas in the area file) that were not configured as nodes in sbbsecho.ini, were ignored. This was changed ("Don't require an exact match [node:x] section in sbbsecho.ini for every link in the area file (areas.bbs)"):http://cvs.synchro.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/src/sbbs3/sbbsecho.c?revision=3.6&view=markupand I'm not sure why.<shrug>Presumably, someone complained or asked for change in behavior. So I'll make this behavior (the requirement that linked nodes are specifically configured as nodes in sbbsecho.ini) optional.
