I had a scenario recently where a sysop was looking to get his fidonet
number. He used me as a hub to forward a netmail to my hub. He
was a little annoying in trying to poll me so I ended up blocking him
not knowing what he was up to. Turns out, he contacted me through
another network we share. I was able to send him to read policy4. He
actually, a couple of weeks later, showed up in the nodelist. I never saw
his actual note to my hub as I don`t accept unsecured mail. What
you`re saying above is I should have accepted his mail and then what?
Read it and them decide what to do? That to me seems like leaving your
front door open and letting anyone walk in unannounced/uninvited.
