    This echo once again has a moderator/caretaker who actually   
    participates in Fidonet.   
      
    For those of you who might have tuned in by just linking to everything   
    available at your uplink, here's some basic echo guidelines for you.   
      
    The purpose of this conference is support for the Squish FTN mail   
    processing software written by Scott Dudley.   
      
    Squish is a companion to Maximus BBS and is a full featured mail   
    processing package.   
      
    Messages posted in this conference should pertain to Squish and Squish   
    related software. Some ancillary packages such as Sqafix may have   
    their own echoes. Those echomail conferences may be inactive however,   
    so discussion of any software which can work with Squish format   
    message bases is permitted and encouraged.   
       
    Usual rules of echomail etiquette apply at all times in this echomail   
    conference. NO test posts, etc. When a thread drifts off topic for the   
    echo move it to an appropriate conference or to private mail.   
      
    NO widget wars will be tolerated. This means operating systems, mail   
    processor packages and BBS software. This does not mean that a   
    discussion which addresses strengths and weaknesses of various pieces   
    of software is automatically deemed off topic however. Those with   
    common sense shouldn't have to be told when the line is crossed.   
      
    Should there be a violation of these rules it will normally be   
    addressed in netmail by the moderator(s) of this echomail conference.   
    At most you will see a post to the thread from a moderator requesting   
    that the thread be brought back into compliance with these posted rules   
    and guidelines. This message will be addressed globally to all. Any   
    other communication regarding rules violations or moderation issues   
    will be handled by netmail only. Since this echomail conference is only   
    relevant to system operators and those of point systems it is felt that   
    netmail should be sufficient for dealing with other moderation issues.   
    Posters who violate conference rules and guidelines more than once   
    within the same thread may be subject to possible bannishment from the   
    conference.   
      
    I'd prefer not to have to go that route however. Difficult to enforce   
    if somebody's intent on circumventing it, and most reasonable folks   
    shouldn't need it.   
      
    Gating this echomail conference outside Fidonet is not permitted.
