Hey there :)

It's all good, no stress regarding looking at this one, if you find time in 2022 then that would be great. I think it would be something worth exploring so that at some high level there was logic that could negate such issues if Mystic was tossing such stuff from other nodes.

I accept the comments from others about how a node should be the main area of focus to fix any issue if it's the one generating the problem. My perspective was simply that if a HUB aka tosser could have some logic built in to it such that it could assist in negating echomail area flooding onwards to others, then that would be a useful thing to implement as well.

I'm looking forward to seeing A47 in the public domain, I'll have some videos to work on / update when it does :)

Best, Paul
