FYI, I haven't seen anything posted by you in the Dovenet - 
Advertisements echo. However, I see advertisements posted by other 
Mystic systems in there, so I doubt it's a Mystic issue.

When 'it triggers the qwkpoll event' do you actually see your system 
connect to VERT in the logs and see a packet leave your system successfully?

I wouldn't think the address would matter, as that's not a QWK thing. If 
anything, 0:0/0 would probably be the correct setting there. Anything 
posted locally, including auto-posts, to your Dovenet areas should be 
sent to VERT if everything is setup correctly between you and the QWK hub.

Are any of your other messages posted to Dovenet getting out? Maybe 
there's a configuration error somewhere that would affect more than just 
the messages you're trying to auto-post..?

Regards,
Nick
