I doubt Mystic supports this (yet?). But we just went through this the past 
couple days, when Psi-Jack was routing a Fidonet netmail through my system to 
Janis. I don't have Janis configured anywhere here on my system, as I route 
through Ross. Well, his netmail went from my system directly to Janis anyways, 
because he had the "Netmail Crash" option set to yes.

Synchronet's tosser picked up on that, and pushed the netmail directly to 
Janis, instead of my normal route configuration. Good thing I run binkd and use
 
the BINKD.TXT nodelist format.. otherwise that netmail would have just sat on 
my system not knowing where to go! :)

Regards,
Nick
