   If it would, i wouldn't support you. The FTN compatibiliy of mystic can be   
   called alpha by good will and it's not liked by many nodes i know.

   I don't have any ged+ docs, but the goldusr.doc of golded 2.50 had an   
   explanation of goldeds QWK features. If you could get actual docs, user guide   
   and reference guide, you may find keywords like   
      
    QWKIMPORTPATH    
                 Path where incoming QWK packet files (CONTROL.DAT and   
                 MESSAGES.DAT) can be found.   
      
   and a good introduction into goldeds qwk system. It had some limitations, i.e.:   
      
   "GoldED currently doesn't support unpacking and packing of compressed .QWK and   
   .REP packets. You must unpack and pack your QWK/REP packets manually or using   
   a batchfile."   
      
   and it does overwrite export, so you must deliver exported mails before   
   writing again.   
      
   There are many keywords beginning with QWK... to much to keep it short here.

   I'm sorry, i can remember using Yuppie!s QWK features once, but i can't   
   remember any details. As of goldref told me "CTRLINFO    
   Enables or disables tearline and/or origin in random system groups." it should   
   be possible to use golded random system for qwk origin lines. It may be   
   possible that the origin line is replaced by the uplink node system of the qwk   
   user.   
      
    AI> One last question, a couple of the nets I have here use alias/handle

   Yes. That can be defined by goldeds random system. The standard config file   
   for that is called goldrand.cfg. Don't get confused, it's more of a template   
   and random system.   
      
   It uses group and endgroup statements to define configuration blocks.   
      
   The group statement can be an echotag like following, where all REQUEST.*   
   echos use that group, or by the member line for each echoarea that should get   
   that config block too.   
      
   #GROUP REQUEST.*   
   # MEMBER    
   # AKA 2:240/1351.7   
   #; template request.tpl   
   # ORIGIN "OS/2... a point of no return"   
   # ORIGIN "Hyperspeed SCSI-Modem: 3,2MB/s"   
   #TWITMODE blank   
   #ENDGROUP   
      
   As far as i know USERNAME is a valid keyword for the random system too.
