Do you validate received segments?

As I can see, they have a region-size "star" with 2:450/1024 in the center. Personally I heavily dislike such structures, but that's better than nothing.

Have you really believed to this shit?

See (*).
However, yesterday he succeeded in sending netmail to me and getting my answer (mostly a translation of my previous message with some hints).

Although RC is not required to route netmail, R45C may simply offload it to 2:450/1024, as most people in R45 are connected there.

Ok... so, I've just helped to sort that garbage a bit :-)

Once again: see (*).
Generally, that had to be done after first attempt to deliver nodelist segment via non-FTN way.
AV>> The question is purely technical. And I still hope to get an answer. WD> I hope I answered it.
ACK.
