    Gr> I recently brought a Synchronet BBS online and I'm now setting it up to   
    Gr> properly participate in FidoNet. I have configured the FidoNet address,   
    Gr> NetMail and EchoMail directories, and created the required FIDOTEST   
    Gr> sub-board in SCFG.    
      
    Gr> Before proceeding with nodelist processing and EchoMail exchange, I would   
    Gr> appreciate confirmation that my setup follows the expected standards for a   
    Gr> new node, as well as any advice about prerequisites for formally joining a   
    Gr> Fidonet region or zone.   
      
    they have what you need here --> https://www.fidonet.org/joinfido.html   
      
   hope this helps, I still haven't set it up my self, been trying to talk myself   
   into joining, maybe I'll finally start the process :)
