Yes, there's some other* kludge for sending Internet email through the
netmail, but that involved having Fido gates into the Internet, which I
don't think* is the case any more, now that many bbs's have their own
way onto the Inet.  There's also a kludge for when the email addy is too
long to put in the To: line in the regular header, but I haven't used
that in years either, since I have email through the same ISP that gives
me access to the Inet for telnetting.

 DC>> It seems to be working.  But, as I mentioned, some of it has to do

 NB> I didn't even get the netmail he tried to send me online at Doc's to
 NB> Chowda...  Hmmm.... maybe I should send myself a netmail from Doc's to

 DC> I got his mail, but he doesn't seem to have seen my reply.  

Now that could be because he doesn't have that area tagged for download
AND also doesn't look at messages to him while he is online.  You and I
have established that Doc's  you works...

But there does appear to be a break for netmail to Chowda from Doc's,
which is odd since echomail has no trouble both ways.  Hmmm...  maybe I
should send from* Chowda to* Doc's and see if that* works.  This is
getting curious.  (Probably not a BW problem, at that, of course...)

 NB> I've* done at Doc's for messages is to choose which areas I would be
 NB> downloading in the qwk mail door (which also is carried over to the PX
 NB> door, as I found out when I checked that out).
 DC> If you can download from an area you should be able to send to 
 DC> that area as well.  

Yes, I can send to any area I have tagged for download... the only
trouble is that apparently messages uploaded to the Netmail area just
never leave the bbs to go to their destination... :(

... If you're not confused, you're not paying attention.
