I know that in some respects, FrontDoor and InterMail are similar. If   
   I remember right, one such deal is the routing file (ROUTE.FD or   
   ROUTE.IM -- FD for FrontDoor and IM for InterMail).   
      
     I had originally run GT Power for dial-up for 13 years, using   
   InterMail as the frontend, and 2 tossers (InterEcho and FIDOGate) for GT   
   Power. Then, I went to Synchronet for 2 years, then to Virtual Advanced.   
   However, with GT Power now under new ownership, I'm going to return to   
   my BBS roots.   
      
     Anyway, my question concerns the routing and files statements. In this   
   case, I'll just use the ones to my main hub, Janis Kracht, at 1:261/38,   
   as the example.   
      
   ROUTE-TO 1:261/38 1:261/38   
      
   This routes any direct netmail to Janis' system.   
      
   ROUTE-TO 1:261/38 1:ALL 2:ALL 3:ALL 4:ALL 5:ALL 6:ALL   
      
   This routes any FIDONet Zone Netmail to Janis' system.   
      
   I think the FILES-TO command would be similar.   
      
     The bottom line is that it has been over 10 years since I ran GT   
   Power, InterEcho, and FIDOGate...and while I have GT Power and its   
   tosser (FIDOGate) set up, I have that one question with InterEcho. Since   
   I don't have dial-up anymore (after construction crews several   
   years ago sliced the cables out at the apartments where I live), I won't   
   be using InterMail as a frontend...especially since the new version of   
   GT Power will be telnet capable.   
      
     Any clarification would be appreciated.
