metalink not returning URL for private mirror

Hello,

Our organization is running high number of linux machines and to save bandwidth and resources, we've created private mirror to redirect all our machines via metalink to it. 
We sync data every 2 hours with quick-fedora-mirror and then run report_mirror to inform upstream about our state. We only mirror part of the EPEL tree, could that be the reason, why metalink is not returning our URL to our restricted ranges? If yes, how can we override all that without mirroring entire EPEL tree?

Thanks

It should actually work. If you tell me the name of your mirrormanager
entry I can take a closer look.

If I look at it right now it seems to work:

curl -s "https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-7&arch=x86_64&i..." | grep curatio
        <url protocol="http" type="http" location="GE" preference="100" mm0:private="True">http://space.curatio.loc/repo/epel/7/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml</url>

Do you still see the problem? Maybe it was a temporary problem?
