Subj : Host-routing to points?

DM,

I brought this up a while ago, and I'm seeing behavior I don't understand.

I have a rule in echocfg that says to route mail for 2:ALL with CRASH flavor.

[node:2:ALL@fidonet]
Name = 
Comment = Fidonet Zone 2
Archive = ZIP
PacketType = 2+
PacketPwd = 
AreaFix = false
AreaFixPwd = 
SessionPwd = 
TicFilePwd = 
Inbox = 
Outbox = 
Passive = false
Direct = false
Notify = false
Keys = 
Status = Crash
GroupHub = 
BinkpHost = 
BinkpPort = 24554
BinkpPoll = false
BinkpPlainAuthOnly = false
BinkpAllowPlainAuth = true
BinkpAllowPlainText = true
BinkpTLS = false
BinkpSourceAddress = 


But, when I look at my log, I see entries where, instead of host-routing mail destined for points, it's doing a nodelist lookup and failing.

  6/13  10:46:03a  BINKOUT Attempting callout for 2:240/8005.323@fidonet, file: C:\sbbs\binkit\outbox.002\00f01f45.pnt\00000143.cut

  6/13  10:46:07a  BINKOUT Connection to p323.f8005.n240.z2.binkp.net:24554 failed (Error: No such host is known. ).

Is there a way that I'm missing to get sbbsecho to host-route all point mail to their boss nodes?
