Where can I get the latest echomail areas list for Fidonet?        EB> Thanks.              There is a file called backbone.na that is a list of areas carried on the       backbone. I have that file here, you can download it from the BBS or I can send        you a copy.              The file I sent you, fidonet.na is a list of all the areas I have here on my       BBS. You are free to connect a few or all of those areas if you wish.              Aside from that though, Fido sysop's may have other areas as well and you are       free to link with any fido nodes you have an agreement with to link areas.              There is also a file area called BACKBONE that you can connect. Whenever that       backbone.na is updated it is sent out to all nodes connected to the area so       your backbone.na file is always up to date.               Ttyl :-),        Al              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20180707        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 57/0 90/1 103/705 153/250 154/10 203/0 220/70 221/0       SEEN-BY: 227/114 229/101 200 426 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 250/3       SEEN-BY: 267/800 280/464 5003 292/854 310/31 317/3 322/757 340/1000       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 423/120 633/280 712/848 770/0 1 100 330 340       SEEN-BY: 772/0 1 220 230 500 2452/250       PATH: 153/757 250 770/1 280/464 229/426           |
