   This echo is for the discussion and support of:   
      
    --  the original line of Blue Wave offline mail readers and mail doors   
        by George Hatchew.  Blue Wave is an abandonware (unregisterable)   
        product so this echo provides "unofficial" support.  THE DISCUSSION   
        OF "CRACKS" OR UNOFFICIAL SERIAL NUMBERS FOR THE BLUE WAVE LINE   
        OF PRODUCTS IS OFF-TOPIC HERE AND MAY RESULT IN MODERATOR ACTION.   
      
    -- any program that directly works with the Blue Wave offline mail format,   
       be it a mail reader or BBS software (please limit the discussion of BBS   
       software within the scope of Blue Wave; any other discussion is off-topic   
       here).  Examples of such programs: Multimail, OLMS, Ezycom BBS, MBSE BBS,    
       et cetera.   
      
   Developers of Blue Wave-related programs may use this echo for support and   
   testing (within reason) for their programs.   
      
   General guidelines and policies are in place to help facilitate the smooth   
   flow of conversation in here.  By your participation in this echo, you   
   agree to abide by the following:   
      
     -- Please keep off-topic traffic to a minimum.  If it doesn't involve   
        Blue Wave, please move the conversation elsewhere.   
           
     -- Please do not overquote.  There is no need to quote twenty (20) lines   
        of a message to respond with "I agree!" or something like that.  You   
        need to remember that even in this day and age of Fidonet over the   
        internet, people still pay for their bandwidth and the extra data   
        isn't appreciated.   
      
     -- No flaming (this includes operating system flames) and no profanity   
        is allowed.  If you wouldn't say it to your mother, don't say it in here.   
        
     -- If you disagree with someone, take it to netmail or email.  Do NOT   
        get into it in the echo.   
           
     -- Ads for Blue Wave-related programs are allowed (i.e. a new version of   
        a program).  No ads for anything else are allowed.   
      
     -- Please do not post "test" messages in here unless they are from a   
        developer testing his Blue Wave-related product.   
      
     -- Except for P4, no local/regional echomail policies (such as EP1) are   
        recognized in this echo.   
      
     -- English is the primary language of this echo, however, I do realize that   
        there are non-native English speakers in here.  You may speak in your   
        native tongue as long as there is an English translation (to the best   
        of your availability) available in the same message.   
      
     -- Let the moderator do the moderating.  If you have issues with someone   
        else, take them to netmail or email and not in the echo.  If you have   
        a problem with the moderator, please take it to netmail.   
      
     -- This is a living document and subject to change without notice by the   
        moderator.   
      
     -- Please do not gate this echo outside of Fidonet by any means without   
        written permission of the moderator.   
      
   Thank you for your participation in BLUEWAVE!
