Bulletin flood area vs hierarchical address continent code.
The flood area can be any 6-character word, but the trick
is in having the forwarding partners pay attention to it.
Just because it says @eu does not guarantee that it just
goes to the intended target area and nowhere else. It is
a slow education process of the sysops to route things to
their forwarding partners correctly.
