okay you didn't say you were using a reader.
I tried sending netmail from the board interface (non-private), and
how did you do it? through the reader? or via the bbs?
I used the main read mail function, then selected netmail on the
bbs. When I tried sending a private email from the QWK packet
reader (BlueWave 2.20 with Y2K update), I found it was not private
but sent to all.
also tried to send a private message. (telegram)
that's entirely different.
When I tried to send private mail from Vert main message menu using
E to enter, I selected private and it came up with a few selections
such as telegram, chat, netmail etc. I tried a few but got errors.

To send email via QWK, you need to post the message to conference #0.

All email and netmail is private, or as private as you can expect at least. There is non-private email or netmail option, they are
implicitly private. I think you're confusing the private inter-node and inter-BBS communications (via the Ctrl-P hotkey) with email. They're
very different things. --
