Yup, but Fido doesn't do that - thank heavens! I like the fact that Fido 
allows you to send messages aimed at one particular person - anyone can 
answer them anyway, but at least the person you aim the message at it will 
most likely see it!

No, not really. When I first set up as a point, 5 years ago, I had to come up 
with a name for my system. At that time, I was considering setting up an 
education-based BBS. I also was co-sysoping my bossnode's BBS, which taught 
me that I did *not* want to run a BBS. :)  Instead, I became a full mail-only 
node, and since my echomail hobby has succeeded in educating me in many ways, 
I left the name as it stood. :)
