There isn't anyone listed in the nodelist by that name. Maybe he's looking
to join Fidonet and is polling your system, looking for a way in.

One thing about Irex isn't well known by non-users is that it will poll
every node you have listed in the node manager, if you leave their status
as active and a statement in an event that says to poll All.
