te> I just joined Fidonet and added 63 echoes. Each of which I had to go in   
    te> and set the export nodes manually. :(   
     O.k. I discovered the hard way that if you create a message area and   
   specify the export node in the message area, it doens't matter, it'll   
   dissapear as soon as you exit and save the the record.  You can then tag the   
   area with the tab key, and globally add the node to export to, update, then   
   it'll keep the node added.  I also later discovered that if you just create   
   the message areas, go to the first menu option (can't remember what is is off   
   hand), and select the echomail nodes, high light the node you want to export   
   to, press the slash key ('/') and tell it I think export areas, something   
   like that, you can go through and add all the echos you want it to export to   
   that node.
