Everyone,

I am the hub in question, and heres what I see:

- I download and install Mystic from the Mystic website... A46 I think.
- Configured it with primary address 1:229/426.93 and the uplink 1:229/426.
- Configured a dummy echomail area between the two systems.
- Post a local message from .93 and have MUTIL export, MIS POLL SEND to me.

When I use Pktview (util from '94) to view the packet sitting in Mystic's
outbound before its sent here, the packet header is showing as being from
the address 1:65535/426.93.

The negative Net display here is simply a cosmetic problem for me to deal with
but the unusual Net-value generated by Mystic in the packet header is not.

I am not a Mystic expert or even aware if I am using the latest version but 
this is what I have discovered in less than a half-hour of testing.

This system feeds over a hundred downlinks; many are Mystic systems trading 
packets here like clockwork. This is the first time I've seen this problem but
do not believe I have any Points running Mystic.
