   FYI...   
      
   Here are instructions on how I gate mailing lists into my BBS software with   
   irex and my tosser.   
      
   1) I configure a point address for the "Uplink" of the mailing list.  In your   
   node manager configure a point.   
      
   2) rexcfg > Email Setup > Let's create one.  I'm going to use the DFSee list   
   as my example here.   
     - Address ID: DFSEE   
     - username: mlistgate (My "username" for email account)   
     - domain name: rogers.com   
     - Mail Spool Type: Connect to POP3/SMTP   
       - fill in  your email information here.   
      
     - Use for Outbound Mail: Yes   
     - Use for Inbound  Mail: Yes   
     - Domain Controlled here: No   
     - Multiuser address: Yes   (I get all maiing lists to this addy)   
     - Recipient: Search support@dfsee.com for Matching messages only.   
      
     - No filters configured.   
      
   3) Gateway Setup   
     - Gateway Address: (The point I created above)   
     - Gateway Username: UUCP   
     - Setup Gates   
       - Gateway Address: 1:229/452.2   
       - Messages Gated: Echomail <> Email   
       - Messages Saved to: Type 2+ packet   
       - Gate through: dfsee (The above connection)   
       - username: mlistgate   
       - Echomail area: DFSEE   
       - Fido Address: 1:229/452.0   
       - Remote's email address: dfseesupport@yahoogroups.com   
       - Org as Origin: YES   
       - Over ride gateway defaluts: NO   
      
   Now configure your tosser to toss to the DFSEE "echo" with the point as your   
   uplink etc.   
      
   That setting has worked for me under both Max & Fastecho/2, and now under   
   Windows with PXW as the tosser.   
      
   Should work with Squish too. :)
