One part of the Mystic echomail system that remains cloudy to me is the "Routin Info" section of "Echomail Nodes" in mystic configuration.
For Fidonet I put this for Routing Info: 1:*

The reason I'm asking, is because someone on Fido had recently said he thought I had my filenames crossed (or something) because he said that certain conversations were turning up in the wrong echos. I confirmed

This field is used just for letting Mystic know what to do with Netmail. So when you send netmail Mystic will look at your defined echomail nodes to figure out which one to use to route netmail to.
You should route 1:* 2:* 3:* 4:* to your fidonet hub.
Thanks for this explanation. I think these settings should be fine then.
I was just concerned that I was causing echomail to end up in the wrong echos, but this shouldn't affect that.

I have 1:* 2:* 3:* 4:* in there. That way any netmail that I may send
Check the filename of your echos as well. I made this mistake when I was
