is that the only thing you have set for them? i'm using the following here in
my region control file...

  netaddress 1:18/0
  submit     1:229/426 INTL NOKILLSENT
  notify     errors INTL CRASH NOKILLSENT
  notify     receipt INTL NOKILLSENT
  notify     self INTL NOKILLSENT
  messages   /sbbs/ftn/netmail

the NOKILLSENT attribute is due to a local patch so that my mailer doesn't
delete the segment file which is sent directly from my makenl master
directory... i forget if i offered the patch but i think it did... i'm not sure 
if it has been applied to the main source or not, though... i think it has
since i don't find my patch file and my script is not attempting to apply it
after updating the code...

i always use INTL to make sure that the proper 3D/4D address information and
control lines are used... i forget if makenl can do 5D
(zone:net/node[.point]@domain) yet...

i also place the destination host's address on the net lines...

eg:
  Net        116  wwwwwwww.txt  1:116/0
  Net        123  xxxxxxxx.txt  1:123/0
  Net        135  yyyyyyyy.txt  1:135/0
  Net        3634 zzzzzzzz.txt  1:3634/0

granted, makenl defaults to sending the notice to the /0 but i do it this way
anyway...

not sure if this will help you or not, though... i'm using self-built linux
version and haven't updated in a year or three...
