   Hey mark!   
      
    ml> which type2 packet format do you use?   
      
   Heh, heh.  That is a loaded question.  In reality none but if you *really*   
   mean which version gets tacked onto outbound pkt's then I am not sure at the   
   moment which format it matches but for sure it is no longer the original type2   
   and it definetly isn't the one where the domain is used.  Which version does   
   that leave?  ;-)   
      
    ml> likely because you aren't involved in any other networks than   
    ml> fidonet ;)   
      
   Not true except if you mean ftn-ish style networks and then it is true.    
   Speaking in favour of fidonet, I do like the idea of text based message bases   
   that I have access to using a terminal, especially utf8 text these days.  Also   
   I have never been a fan of web based solutions especially for messaging so   
   fidonet has fit in since way back when the earth's crust was still cooling.    
   Too bad about some of the goofiness that has leaked into fidonet networking   
   over the years but I found that I could compensate or totally ignore it so no   
   harm done.   
      
   Life is good,
