Re: Why does SP KC7MRY@KC7MRY.#WPA.PA.US.NAOM match RMS?

BPQMail checks if a message is to a packet or Internet address when the message is input. Basically a message is deemed to be an internet address if the @ field contains a . and the last element of the address is not a valid packet continent or country code. NAOM is not a valid continent, so the message is routed to RMS.

There have been some messages asking why NAOM doesn't match NAOM in the hierarchical routing config. The reason is that the packet/internet determination is made before the message is passed to the routing code.

Hi, John:

Hierarchical address:
I think your country code is USA, not US.
I think your continental code is NOAM, not NAOM.

To K3CLM.#WPA.PA.USA.NOAM, but BPQ32 prefers to route it via RMS.

I put PA.US.NAOM in the HR (Personals and Directed Bulls) field for K3CLM, but
BPQ32 still chooses the match RMS.
!
If I 'fix' the hierarchical address, the message is routed correctly.

Why does SP KC7MRY@KC7MRY.#WPA.PA.US.NAOM match RMS?
