  Here are two such admissions from me in the FIDONEWS echo.

   That is exactly what I was referring to -- her echo had as its stated
   purpose exactly what the rules for this echo state.

   Thanks to the posting by Roy Witt, I see that the name she created
   was not FIDONEWS, but NEWSCHAT.

   It seems that this echo, with an Echotag created by a FIDONEWS
   editor, has morphed into the one she created.

   I accept that correction.

  Sorry, since you publish that address in this echo all the time, it
  did not occur to me to obfuscate it ---  but since you do, I should
  have also.   I do not publish email addresses obtained privately in
  any place.

  Perhaps that is because it is one of the largest ISPs and some of its
  clients are clueless zombies.   Nevertheless, I do not normally have
  problems.

   I looked there and it seemed that there were a lot of rejected

   I use it for business communications all of the time, never with a

  I don't like chat lines of any sort.
