So we have to figure out if your messages are getting sent to 25:25/0 or not, and if they are why they are filing.

The usual culprit is a bad or missing packet password.

They should go out in any network, if that doesn't happen you'll need to check the logs and find out why. If they are going out but failing at the hub you need to find out why too. Ask your link if he sees a problem on his end.

> Under "Echomail Nodes" I have Metronet set up with Route Info: 25:*

This is for netmail. Any netmail you write to a 25:* address will be send to this node to forward on.

I can see there is a problem but just what is hard to say. I hope your logs or those of your link 25:25/0 will provide an answer.
