  • netmail toss

    From Rick Smith@1:105/81 to all on Friday, March 03, 2023 06:17:40
    Hello all!

    I hub for a bunch of nodes, and I have been noticing that all netmail ends up in my netmail folder, I checked the logs and it still appears to go to the intended node, but what would be causing other peoples netmail showing up in my inbox? Any ideas?

    Regards,

    Rick

    TLDR; hpt pack

    Your node routes netmail for other nodes, aka a transit netmail. The workflow is the same, you do "hpt toss" to process inbound packets and all netmail will end up in the netmail area defined in the config. The next step is to pack netmail either originated from your node or a transit netmail by running "hpt pack"
