Subj : Mutil PostTextFiles for QWK Networks

Is the PostTextFiles capability in mutil supposed to work with QWK networks? I have it set up to post my add to DOVE-Net. It indeed posts the message locally, and I can see it trigger the qwkpoll event, however I don't see the message show up on other BBSes that carry DOVE-Net (such as my main board).

This is what my PostTextFiles section in mutil.ini looks like (with totalfiles=3 and this is the 3rd file to be auto-posted):

file3_name    = dc-ad.ans
file3_baseidx = 5
file3_from    = codefenix
file3_to      = All
file3_subj    = [ANSI] dawnCHAOTIC
file3_addr    = 0:0/0
file3_delfile = false

I wonder if file3_addr is the issue. I've tried several different things here, like the name of the network (VERT), my own qwk ID (DCHAOTIC), and they all seem to lead to the same outcome of not actually sending the message out.
