Okie doke, but first, I gotta thumb through the docs to find the
appropriate info.  Looking....

Okay, for echomail use, it goes something like this (just the
pertinant portions)...

Net-Mail Conference*: Yes
Public Messages Only: Yes
Caller Message Deletion: (ususally set to) No
Allow Message Routing: No (unless your using a BCS util called BCSUTI)
Net ID Name: Echo Tag for given echo

That's about all of the major areas of concern for setting up echomail
in Spitfire...other than the 2 primary security settings, listed
below...

Msg. Conference Access:  The MINIMUM security level allowed to read
messages in the given message area.

Message Entry Security:  The MINIMUM sec. level to POST in the given
message area.

Then we have the Privileged Securities option, but I'll not go into
that, unless you have several different level settings (ie: more than 2
or 3).

* = Mike appears to have lumped echomail & netmail into the same
category...minorly disconcerting at first, but not an issue to deal
with.

That should get you on your way.
