Hello Wilfred,

I think I have it figured out now. The problem is between 2:520/715 (AKA 2:50/0) and 2:5058/0. These are the vias for a ping routed via 2:5020/715 to 2:5058/0

5058/108 is the old 5058/0. He is no longer in the nodelist, but the system is still up and running. He no longer shows the /0 AKA.

5020/715 routes mail for 5058/104 directly to 5048/104. But mail for 5058/0 is routed to 5020/830. Probably for historic reasons. This is the first error.

5020/830 routes mail for 5058/0 to 5058/108. Maybe using an old nodelist. This is the second error. The miracle is that 5058/108 correctly drops it at 5058/0. :-)

I have notified the sysops concerned.

This PING thing is really great for tracking routing problems. ;-)


Cheers, Michiel
