Hello, Kevin.

Replying to a message of Kevin Nunn to Sean Dennis:

 KN> I know that technically that is a requirement of FidoNet, but is it

 KN> the need for the required bbs shutdown for ZMH is really a neccessity
 KN> anymore. But, I guess that is a subject for another echo :)

Not all BBSes do - I still have one board crash me for mail and I do get
crash mail.  I prefer it (especially if the Internet goes down) still. 
Much more private than Internet mail tranfers too.

Later,
Sean
