                                About ILink   
      
   WHAT MAKES ILINK STAND OUT FROM THE REST?   
      
   There are many echomail networks and each has its own unique flavor.   
   ILink gives a unique character by the belief in hosted conferences.   
   ILink conferences are actively hosted and suitable for a general   
   audience. X-rated discussions, profanity nor flames permitted.   
      
   HISTORY OF ILINK   
      
   ILink began in February of 1986 with a small group of sysops, an   
   innovative programmer (Mark Herring, developer of the QWK format), and   
   a single conference. The original network was called PCB-Echo, later   
   evolving into InterLink, and streamlined to ILink.   
      
   FEED TYPES AND TRANSPORT METHODS AVAILABLE   
      
   QWK: via Dialup, Telnet, FTP, and HTTP   
   FTN: via Dialup, FTP, and Email, Binkp

                  APPLYING FOR ILINK ECHOMAIL NETWORK   
      
   APPLYING FOR MEMBERSHIP   
      
   When a sysop applies to join ILink, a review is made of the applicant's   
   BBS policies, message traffic, stability, capabilities, and overall   
   quality. This review is carried out quietly by the ILink BBS   
   Administrator. On approval, the BBS is admitted as a trial member for a   
   60-day period, and is assigned to a host system for mail transfers by   
   the ILink BBS Administrator.   
      
   More details concerning the policies governing ILink are contained in a   
   file called ILDoc. Upon acceptance, additional documentation to assist   
   you in setting up ILink will be provided.   
      
   ----------------------------------------------------------------------   
      
   HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?   
      
   It takes about one week to process an application from the time you   
   submit it to the time you are informed of the decision.
