Remeber that I'm not posting from a BBS but from individual messages thrown
into my database.  As for treating echomail like a newsgroup, if I wanted
to be in a newsgroup, I'd be there.:-)

It's also been close to a decade since I dealt with RIME and my
recollection is that if you wanted messages to someone to be treated like
netmail, you had to code it accordingly.
  
Take care,
