      MSGID: 1:104/57.0 4ec959eb       PID: ViaMAIL! v2.00 90-0001       -> i have a list of FTN zones that i've built up over time... no clue       -> which ones are actually active or how to join them... my list has       -> been built from scanning mailer connections and looking at all the       -> AKAs presented...       ->       -> https://paste.linux-help.org/view/07b043b2              Will have a look...              -> the file says it is in 5D format and it pretty much is other than       -> the zone number used... all of them are set to 1 (my base/main AKA       -> zone) because my tosser appends the hex zone to the given path       -> instead of leaving that for only additional zones in the same       -> network... the actual zones are listed in the far right columns...       ->       -> it might be easier to scan your mailer logs for connections with       -> other systems and see what AKAs they are flying... then contact them       -> for info on how to join... since they are already in, they should       -> have information available for others interested in joining...              Thanks Mark...              --- ViaMAIL!/WC v2.00        * Origin: ViaSoft Support BBS - Back online at 303-953-0568 (1:104/57)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 104/57 116/18 124/5018 153/7715 203/0 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/354 426 1014 261/38 100 275/100 280/464 282/1056 340/400       SEEN-BY: 396/45 2320/700 3634/12       PATH: 104/57 261/38 396/45 280/464 229/426           |
