Yes we could probably make some sort of option for this.  I'd have to think it through a little more since the forced command is designed to force a poll of every active node you've configured.

Maybe I can add a new command like "./mis poll uplink" and then have an "Uplink" flag that can be set to Yes which would make Mystic contact every system with that flag enabled.

You can also consider using ./mis poll send" instead which would send mail to nodes that have mail wanting to be sent and ignore the others, then configure your main uplinks to connect via "./mis poll <address>".  Those would all work but it isn't exactly what you're asking for.

I'll add this uplink command to the TODO list.  I am barely able to touch Mystic at the moment and it'll probably be like that for some time since I am moving and have a lot of things going outside of BBSes, but I can try to get that in sometime.
