I bet that is exactly why it failed for us in WinPoint. I assumed that
WinPoint would automatically create the network particulars just like it
does the echo areas when something arrives.
Creating an uplink entry *first* before tossing makes sense. I guess we
wouldn't want WinPoint to blindly accept every pkt or bundle that it receives.
It's a good thing that the "unknown" .pkts are moved out of the way.
BUT.. Apoint doesn't seem to care! ;) The only thing I see failing in
Apoint would be the building of outbound bundles to the proper Boss node.
In which case, that should probably be configured before Exporting any new
messages created locally.
