See the three dashes, the words "GEcho 1.20/Pro", the star, the words
"Origin: Toast House Remote" and the three element numeric in parentheses
right above these lines?  These tell you that this message originated in
Fidonet.  This message will have the word "PPoint" instead of "GEcho".
GEcho and PPoint are echo mail processors for Fidonet-type networks.
I use another program called QwkNews that actually gates the messages
between Fidonet and this newsgroup and a program called TriNet (see the
star followed by [TN71]?) that interfaces the messages with a bulletin
board.
The process is a bit involved, but it works.
