*** Answering a msg posted in area NETMAIL (NETMAIL).

Uh oh, Michael will have my balls for this!

 BG> David has asked me to grab the TML points list from you, so should I freq
 BG> a specific filename, or can you attach it?

I have just updated the TENPOINT.TXT registration details document:

If your application has been successful, I will have added your name to
the list of all points on my system.  If you FREQ "mypoint.*", you will
get this list of points.  If your name is on it, it means you have been
successfully set up.  Please allow 1-2 weeks for you to be set up as a
point.  I may also send you a netmail telling you what your point number
is.  Now, e.g., your point number might be 3:711/934.13.  That means you
are point number 13 on my board.  You should then change your address and
password in your point setup, and try calling me again.  Your point setup
should be complete by this stage.  You can hook yourself in and out of
echos as specified in the AREAFIX.* document, also available for FREQ from
here.  Some echos you may be interested in tagging are "LOCSYSOP" (messages
to Sysop), and "LOCUSER" (messages between users).  There is no requirement
to pick up either.


Your phone numbers are all listed as "-Unpublished-".

BTW, I am planning on taking out the "automatic routing" of
people's names. What this means is that if someone sends a message to
"Paul Markham" at 3:711/934, it won't go anywhere, they have to
go 3:711/934.1 instead, since that is Paul's point address.

The reason I want to do this is that if 2 people have the same name here, I
can't route the mail anyway.  Also you may have multiple names at your
point address, e.g. if you run a BBS from the point address like AWL does.
Also, if someone is routing netmail through my system, and they send a
message to "Paul Markham" in Britain, my system will divert it to
him.  Does anyone have any friends that are so stupid they don't know your
point number? BFN.

Paul
