    This echomail conference is one of the oldest in Fidonet. It is
    basically a "catch all" for topics not covered in other echomail
    conferences. since there are few echoes specifically for discussion of
    serial communications devices such as modems this is the appropriate
    place to discuss such topics.

    WHen an echomail conference is widely available (carried on various
    backbone systems) please post there for best response. OTherwise, feel
    free to post here.

    All posts in this echo must be germane to computer communications
    techniques. Discussion of hardware and software is permitted, although emphasis is on the hardware. All other topics should be taken elsewhere.
    When the topic drifts, take it to private mail, or an appropriate
    conference.

    Other than that, these are the only actual rules I expect to promulgate
    for this echomail conference.

    First and foremost, it is expected that all systems enabling posts in
    this echomail conference are properly configured to show the true
    Fidonet address of origination. If not, the moderator will ask that the problem be repaired before allowing posts from your system to the comm
    echo. Along with this, providing a gateway to/from this echomail
    conference from Fidonet to other networks is strictly prohibited. IF you
    wish to provide such a gateway ask permission in the echo. If
    permission is then granted after a poll of interested users is taken and
    the results of said poll in favor then the gateway must work in both directions, and the valid address of the gate provider shown.

    Multiple line signatures are strongly discouraged. Use of real names
    strongly encouraged. Keep it clean, keep it polite.

    All communication regarding moderation of this echomail conference will
    take place via Fidonet netmail. Not internet email, not smoke signals
    or telepathy. IF you post in this echo, or permit users of your system
    to do so then it is assumed that you have the capability to read and
    answer netmail. It is unreasonable to expect moderators to have to
    hunt down an email address which may not be available, whereas your
    system's address should be displayed on posts originating from your
    system. The only moderation issues which will be handled in the open
    echo are those in which the moderator seeks guidance and input from its
    users.

    If you're new to the world of serial communications and the terminology
    used to discuss it you might wish to avail yourself of the Comm echo
    primer written by Gord Hannah, the previous moderator. It can be
    acquired from any Fidonet system carrying the ep-fdn ep-ascii file echo,
    or from the headquarters of the International Filegate project. TO
    acquire it point your web browser to

    Rules and Guidelines

    This conference is moderated by Dallas Hinton of Fidonet 1:153/715.

    Posting rules and guidelines

    This echomail conference is one of the oldest in Fidonet. It is
    basically a "catch all" for topics not covered in other echomail
    conferences. since there are few echoes specifically for discussion of
    serial communications devices such as modems this is the appropriate
    place to discuss such topics.

    WHen an echomail conference is widely available (carried on various
    backbone systems) please post there for best response. OTherwise, feel
    free to post here.

    All posts in this echo must be germane to computer communications
    techniques. Discussion of hardware and software is permitted, although emphasis is on the hardware. All other topics should be taken elsewhere.
    When the topic drifts, take it to private mail, or an appropriate
    conference.

    Other than that, these are the only actual rules I expect to promulgate
    for this echomail conference.

    First and foremost, it is expected that all systems enabling posts in
    this echomail conference are properly configured to show the true
    Fidonet address of origination. If not, the moderator will ask that the problem be repaired before allowing posts from your system to the comm
    echo. Along with this, providing a gateway to/from this echomail
    conference from Fidonet to other networks is strictly prohibited. IF you
    wish to provide such a gateway ask permission in the echo. If
    permission is then granted after a poll of interested users is taken and
    the results of said poll in favor then the gateway must work in both directions, and the valid address of the gate provider shown.

    Multiple line signatures are strongly discouraged. Use of real names
    strongly encouraged. Keep it clean, keep it polite.

    All communication regarding moderation of this echomail conference will
    take place via Fidonet netmail. Not internet email, not smoke signals
    or telepathy. IF you post in this echo, or permit users of your system
    to do so then it is assumed that you have the capability to read and
    answer netmail. It is unreasonable to expect moderators to have to

    All posts in this echo must be germane to computer communications

    First and foremost, it is expected that all systems enabling posts in

    echo. Along with this, providing a gateway to/from this echomail
    conference from Fidonet to other networks is strictly prohibited. IF you
    wish to provide such a gateway ask permission in the echo. If
    permission is then granted after a poll of interested users is taken and
    the results of said poll in favor then the gateway must work in both directions, and the valid address of the gate provider shown.

    Multiple line signatures are strongly discouraged. Use of real names
    strongly encouraged. Keep it clean, keep it polite.

    All communication regarding moderation of this echomail conference will
    take place via Fidonet netmail. Not internet email, not smoke signals
    or telepathy. IF you post in this echo, or permit users of your system
    to do so then it is assumed that you have the capability to read and
    answer netmail. It is unreasonable to expect moderators to have to
    hunt down an email address which may not be available, whereas your
    system's address should be displayed on posts originating from your
    system. The only moderation issues which will be handled in the open
    echo are those in which the moderator seeks guidance and input from its
    users.

    If you're new to the world of serial communications and the terminology
    used to discuss it you might wish to avail yourself of the Comm echo
    primer written by Gord Hannah, the previous moderator. It can be
    acquired from any Fidonet system carrying the ep-fdn ep-ascii file echo,
    or from the headquarters of the International Filegate project. TO

    WHen an echomail conference is widely available (carried on various
    backbone systems) please post there for best response. OTherwise, feel
    free to post here.

    All posts in this echo must be germane to computer communications
    techniques. Discussion of hardware and software is permitted, although emphasis is on the hardware. All other topics should be taken elsewhere.
    When the topic drifts, take it to private mail, or an appropriate
    conference.

    Other than that, these are the only actual rules I expect to promulgate
    for this echomail conference.

    First and foremost, it is expected that all systems enabling posts in
    this echomail conference are properly configured to show the true
    Fidonet address of origination. If not, the moderator will ask that the problem be repaired before allowing posts from your system to the comm
    echo. Along with this, providing a gateway to/from this echomail
    conference from Fidonet to other networks is strictly prohibited. IF you
    wish to provide such a gateway ask permission in the echo. If
    permission is then granted after a poll of interested users is taken and
    the results of said poll in favor then the gateway must work in both directions, and the valid address of the gate provider shown.

    Multiple line signatures are strongly discouraged. Use of real names
    strongly encouraged. Keep it clean, keep it polite.

    All communication regarding moderation of this echomail conference will
    take place via Fidonet netmail. Not internet email, not smoke signals
    or telepathy. IF you post in this echo, or permit users of your system
    to do so then it is assumed that you have the capability to read and
    answer netmail. It is unreasonable to expect moderators to have to
    hunt down an email address which may not be available, whereas your
    system's address should be displayed on posts originating from your
    system. The only moderation issues which will be handled in the open
    echo are those in which the moderator seeks guidance and input from its
    users.

    If you're new to the world of serial communications and the terminology
    used to discuss it you might wish to avail yourself of the Comm echo
    primer written by Gord Hannah, the previous moderator. It can be
    acquired from any Fidonet system carrying the ep-fdn ep-ascii file echo,
    or from the headquarters of the International Filegate project. TO
