Subj : fido To : All From : sysop Date : Sat Jun 06 2015 17:53:00 hi everyone just a question for fellow sysops out there, for fidonet do you really need any external programs? i checked my docs for synchronet 3.16 and it says sbbsecho program does it all i set it up like docs say and tried a cpl times to send a mail to my coordinator so i could get a node number how do i know if its working? also if i try to set up any third party tossers they seem to wreck my message base even if i follow complete synchronet step by step procedures for those programs. --- þ Synchronet þ Stompin the yard .
