   Hello Robert,   
      
    RW> You went from QWK networking to regular QWK in this reply :)   
      
   How do you mean?   
      
    RW> If he wants to be a node, he might be interested in FidoQWK, which   
    RW> converts QWK packet to PKT files and vice versa.  He would still need   
    RW> and FTN echomail processor.   
      
   I've never heard of that but it might solve the issue.   
      
    RW> Why not give SearchLight a try with the Valence QWK mail door, which   
    RW> allows for both QWK hubbing as well as for tossing and scanning   
    RW> net-status QWK hubs :)   
      
   Is Valence the door that William McBrine wrote? Looks interesting but I know    
   nothing about SearchLight so my best bet is that is not going to happen.   
      
   Is searchLight still supported/updated/registerable?
