I checked the source.  I see in the ax25 forwarding of FORWARD.BBS we have:

BBS
C BBS [VIA] [digi1 digi2 ...]
AREAS
...

VIA is optional and skipped.

While it's a bit down the call stack to the function that strips the
VIA and handles the digi's, maybe we could extend the design a bit
like this:

BBS
C BBS [ AS outgoing-call ] [VIA] [digi1 ...]
areas
...

Not only would this solve my Tactical call issue but it would be
useful with WL2K where they have the (@#$@! silly) scheme of using the
SSID as part of the actual email address.  Right now to get a complete
poll of vl2k email I'd have to check both my wa7nwp and wa7nwp-4
addresses.  Not a big problem manually with airmail but it would be
nice to do it in JNOS.

I'll play more tonight and try tweaking the code if I get a chance -
home around 9 makes for a long day and cuts into the JNOS time.
