    That's a cosmetic bug in Mystic. I've seen it before. The message appears to come from the last hop in the route?

    If you hit R to reply I think it'll show the correct address.

    Yes, it does! Wondered if I had done anything wrong in my setup!

    Yep, I suspect (but I'm no programmer!) that can be fixed fairly easily. We'll have to get Avon to put it on the list for g00r00, if it's not already there.
