 KW> Read the old 'snoozes and watch the BBS documentary.   :)

i have an archive of all of the old snoozes as well as having the
documentary... however, these come later than my questions actually
inquires about... my question is speaking of the first year or so before
there was any mass population to even think about causing problems... those
problems came after users were doing the echomail thing and echomail was an
add-on to the existing netmail stuff with a slight modification of format
:)

FWIW: as a background, i was one of those who actually cast a vote in the
P4 ratification process so that should tell ya how long i've been involved
with fidonet ;) :)
