      Hi Nancy,              * In a message originally to Rudi Timmermans, Nancy Backus said:               > I believe that there is either a built-in BW door in EleBBS or one that        > works with it. I've used that on other bbses running EleBBS.              Yes indeed there are a few doors that works with EleBBS but no build in               ones...               > There is a difference between QWK and BW... Bluewave doors produce BW        > offline packets, which can be read only in BlueWave or BW-compatible        > readers. The BW (or compatible) readers also read and generate QWK        > packets, so they can be used with other bbses that only have some sort        > of QWK packets, such as Wildcat. I'm using my BW reader right now to        > answer this message. As it happens, it is going to be going to a BW        > door, so will stay in a BW format. If I were replying from one of my        > backup bbs packets, it likely could have been in a QWK format, as some        > of them don't have BW, just QWK. As a user that relies heavily on doing        > things offline, I Thank You very much for offering the option. :) If I        > were to visit your bbs, offline capability is one thing I look for. :)              Yes i know this but i just name it al QWK ;)              No problem for this option on my BBS ;) I have also EleWEB online and there               also you can read and reply to a echomail.
