     Do what remote?  I meant to say you CAN do CC in netmail, email
     and echomail.  I do CC in echomail all the time.  But file attachments
     are just for email/netmail.  I think fido would frown at folks
     using file attachments.  You could give th eecho format netmail
     or newgroup and try it.  Might work.  But for netmail it would
     obviously be private.  For NG it'd be public but attachment
     might work.  Hrm...nope..that's Cross Post not CC.  Sorry.
     The above config screen where you metnion the above (top of
     post).  Theres option H/I for attach.  You cna fiddle with
     that to make it remote since I believe default is xL?

     I don't know of any software that does CC/File attach for
     echomail...mainly for netmail.

     Why need CC in echomail?  You can Cross Post the post to other
     echos.  But do you wnt to post to Joe Blow and then have the
     sme post in the same echo trigger for Jane Blow, John Doe and
     such?
