  • Turning Off Echomail Areas

    From The Millionaire@21:1/183 to All on Thu Mar 5 07:35:47 2020
    If you want to turn off an echomail area is it still a - beside the msg area?

    For example:

    + Sports
    - Music

    $ The Millionaire $

    ..."Revenge is sweet. No sugar added."...

    No space between the + or the - and the area name.

    Hello The,

    If you want to turn off an echomail area is it still a - beside the
    msg area?

    For example:

    + Sports
    - Music

    Yes, although there should be no space as others have said.

    You need to do this in the netmail area. You write a message To: Areafix at the
    address of your link. In your case 21:4/106. You also need to put the password
    on the subject line with the commands to areafix in the body of the message. I
    have sent you the areafix help message that explains how to do this.

    A netmail message is a private message from one node to another. It is not the same as echomail where the message goes to all linked nodes. It goes from one node to another.

    This works in all FTN nets you do or will belong to. Fidonet and fsxNet and any
    others you may have.

    I'm going to netmail you your password so you can talk to areafix and connect or disconnect the areas you want.

    If you have any questions just ask.

    Ttyl :-),
