Hello Sean!

I personally recommend 1:18/200 for FidoNet; it's actually in the nodelist. 
;-)

 SD> to sen netmail as routed netmail is a kludge.

Routed netmail was originally intended to save sysops money back when most 
mail was transmitted via modem over phone lines.  These days, most systems are 
available over the internet 24 hours a day, so crashing netmail makes much 
more sense.  If you send directly to the destination, you don't need to worry 
about your message ending up in a black hole somewhere, due to someone's 
misconfigured mail processor.

That being said, we should work with Rick to make sure that routed netmail to 
his net/region actually arrives at its destination.

Andrew
