Hello Peter!

I've not working too mutch with squish, the main reason is that no sqafix is 
aviable under Linux, if i was a leaf node it could work out. But actually hpt 
isn't bad at all, i don't know any other tosser with internal zip.

Okey, i haven't seen them in the documentation, would you be kind to show them?

Nearly zero nodes allows echomail routing!

The gateroute thing, it created a new message, whitch it marked sent, but it 
forgot to mark the original message sent too, to it keeps sending that 
message...

K/s doesn't work either, there were too many bugs..

 PK> Cheers..........pk.

G'day.
