I think I figured it out. I use 618:300/1 (my hub address) instead of 
618:300/16 (my node address) for file/echomail in Micronet. The "Best AKA 
Match" logic apparently prioritizes regular node addresses over 
hub/administrative addresses, which makes sense.

I use my node address for Fidonet and tickit determines the correct AKA to 
use.

Let's hope adding the source address to the area definition overrides the 
From address as expected.
