   How incredible it may sound, considering how many years you have been in our
FTN network, you still don't seem to understand the basic principles of our
network.

   There are still some operators that don't know how to work echomail
distribution without taking it all converted into their BBS message base. As
opposed to just keep it pass-thru.

   Importing messages into your proprietary BBS message base, and then
exporting it from that -- with all the bugs and mistakes the BBS software has
-- is what causes all those huge mistakes.

   As soon as EVERY ONE claiming to take part of FTN echo mail distribution,
understands the importance of pass-thru, we will forever be ridden of those
"bombs".
