    Hello Erich,

    Hi. Where can I get the latest echomail areas list for Fidonet?
    Thanks.

    There is a file called backbone.na that is a list of areas carried on the backbone. I have that file here, you can download it from the BBS or I can send you a copy.

    The file I sent you, fidonet.na is a list of all the areas I have here on my BBS. You are free to connect a few or all of those areas if you wish.

    Aside from that though, Fido sysop's may have other areas as well and you are free to link with any fido nodes you have an agreement with to link areas.

    There is also a file area called BACKBONE that you can connect. Whenever that backbone.na is updated it is sent out to all nodes connected to the area so your backbone.na file is always up to date.

    Ttyl :-),

    Hello Erich,

    Yeah Al. Could you send me it?

    I will send it shortly. I have also connected you to the BACKBONE file area. When that file gets updated you'll get it along with a tic you can use to move the file into your filebase if you choose to do that.

    There is a file called backbone.na that is a list of areas carried on
    the backbone. I have that file here, you can download it from the BBS
    or I can send you a copy.

    The file I sent you, fidonet.na is a list of all the areas I have here
    on my BBS. You are free to connect a few or all of those areas if you wish.

    Aside from that though, Fido sysop's may have other areas as well and
    you are free to link with any fido nodes you have an agreement with to link areas.

    There is also a file area called BACKBONE that you can connect.
    Whenever that backbone.na is updated it is sent out to all nodes
    connected to the area so your backbone.na file is always up to date.

    You can connect to The Rusty MailBox with telnet, ftp or http at trmb.ca. The telnet port is 2030 and web and ftp are on the standard ports.

    I did send you backbone.na though, I think you'll find it in your inbound. :)
