 +SysOps of BBS's system are encourage to update the WhitePages
 +database at GB7CIP by configuring their BBS system to send
 +WP generated data to GB7CIP by addressing it as an SP mail
 +SP WP@GB7CIP.#32.GBR.EURO.
 +
 +note: ALL SB WP@WW are automatically rejected, as these should be sent
 +as an SP. e.g. SP WP@GB7CIP.#32.GBR.EURO

 +Forwarding
 +The_Nodel_Lord liaises with his forwarding partners to ensure that 
 +Personal Mail has routes to the distinations.  
 +
 +You can test the AX25 Personal Mail path to GB7CIP from anywhere in 
 +the world by sending a Ping message.
 +As detailed further down in these notes.
 +
 +Note: GB7CIP does not forward to UK systems that are not authorise
 +to 'relay-digipeat' send and receive third party mail, bulletins 
 +over Radio.
 +i.e. Only forward to GB7### systems or relay via MB7 nodes
 +over Radio Networks.
 +That is your Home BBS needs to be one of the 
 +UK Licenced Ofcom NOV GB7 systems.
 +
 +New BBS systems that wish to send SP mail towards 
 +GB7CIP.#32.GBR.EURO. Are advised to forward via
 +one of my forward partners in your country, Continent as detailed in
 +https://www.theskywaves.net/fbb/gb7cip_ax25_fbb_forwarding_paths.pdf
 +As I have nearly run out of forward partner configuration slots.
 +
 + 
 +That you only use ONE HOME BBS. Or if you log to another BBS remember 
 +to SET YOUR HOME BBS with it's correct HA on the Visited Server. 
 +Otherwise your action will cause your SP Mail to be misrouted 
 +(lost in a big black hole).
