Wow I'm amazed at how many "sysops" failed to even study the paths!
The issue is NOT at all with CX2SA but with those handling forwarding
beyond his bbs. Let me try and give a lesson:
First listed message by N2NOV in his mail - an english bulletin.

This looks like it went from South America to Central America, BACK* to
South America then up to Florida USA. Most likely all 100% internet fed
as well. Except for the loop back down to South America this could be OK
as long as USA also forwarded to other english speaking areas such as
the UK for example.
Second such bulletin - french

Here CX2SA may have made an error sending first to Australia prior to
relaying it up to french speaking Canada. It should have gone to Haiti first
which is a french speaking nation but be that as it may... anyway the error
again is defined by the path.
Lastly we have - spanish

Here its clear that it went from South America to Spain, BACK* to South
America and _then_ to Canada? eh? This is the worst offender of them all
yet! Why? Answer: mosst sysops who forward on the internet do NOT care what
junk they fill up where. It's like driving along the road eating a meal
while you drive and just toss the litter out the window wherever.
N2NOV got most of the path issue with is summary _however_ for those who
DO KNOW BETTER... filter out the areas you don't need to handle and when mails
get rejected or lost perhaps your lazy or unknowing partner will ask for help.
If you receive @NESBBS please do 2 things:
1. Inform the BBS who sent it to you to please stop UNLESS you are in
the region that EastNet services since this is our network group.
Its not that we don't wish you to read the bulletins.. you're quite
welcome to... it's just that they should go NO FURTHER than our region.
2. Please add @NESBBS to your reject file.
The above can hold true for #any# area that is being sent to you that you
either don't want or shouldn't be getting. In JNOS you may do so in the
rewrite file by calling
*@<group> refuse
and simply by not adding the group to your partners
In xFBB
In your forward files groups you wish NOT to send to a partner you first
call it with a bang (!) and then G <group>. An example of such would be
!G LATNET
!G FRANCA
G USBBS
G WW
So anything you may receive to LATNET will NOT get sent out to that
partner, same with FRANCA.
Other softwares please check your documentations.
