It is not unusual for Z1-bound or Z1-originating netmails to end up in a black hole.
 
The reason for that is the old nonsensical routing schemes from the old days where the power-people routed netmail away from the nodelist topology.
 
Power-lords changed or vanished and with them the non-standard routing tracks too, often making netmail undeliverable. In my zone too, individuals have been involved in setting up their own routing business making netmail sometimes fail.
 
In this zone, if someone has out-of-zone netmail and delivers it to my system, then it will guaranteed reach the correct destination zone.
 
In your zone, make certain it gets delivered to Nick Andre, he doesn't lose netmail and will deliver it at the correct zone too.
 
Simple. No?
