Great. Thanks for the PR tip. I never intended them to change "their entire routing policy" just for my laziness, if you insist ;) It's been going on for 2 and 1/2+ weeks with no definitive date/solution/workaround on when it's going to be fixed. Now I've made an attempt trying to show what could be done; perhaps move some butts to actually get something done. Speaking of my customers or perspective customers, I don't get to choose often who they are. Maybe you do, I don't. Happy New Year, -Basil
