    Is it possible using this combination to not use a nodelist and forward
    netmail through a hub? I'd love to know how.

    Yes, I did this many years ago with that combination of software.

    I haven't used any of those in years but if I remember right when I ran "fastecho pack" (I was running in binkley outbound mode) FE would route netmail and pack it in the outbound and the mailer (binkd or Irex) would send it.

    The routeing was all handled by the tosser and handed off to the mailer to deliver it.

    Use routing with FE... The netmail will get packed withe the pack command... It's been some time since I used FE... It then gets set in an outbound file for IRex to send out

    fastecho pack -P did it, thanks guys. I had fastecho pack, but that didn't seem to send anything other than to my hubs.
