Do you mean this:

"This is because osm2navit only knows about a few is_in tags. To fix
this, look for a reliable is_in tag in the towns in your country. If
there is none, contact us, we have some scripts which can help adding
one in this case. Then add the tag (at most 3 per country) to this
page. Unfortunately using the country border for detecting the
membership of a town also isn't an option, because the boundaries are
usually not closed or wrong. "

Finland is on the list mentioned on the site and I've been trying to
check the is_in -codes. Do I really have to add is_in to every object
that's interpreted to be in the wrong place in osm2navit? This means
every street, POI etc..? Not going to happen..
