  What it's for:  A place for moderators to exchange tips, tricks, and  
  information regarding moderation of Fidonet echoes and other forums.  
    
  Any and all discussion regarding the management and moderation of a Fidonet  
  conference is welcome.  
    
  Users and point operators must request permission to post in this echomail  
  conference, either via routed netmail, or via the sysop hosting the user or  
  point system.  
    
  Permission will be granted to recognized moderators of Fidonet echomail  
  conferences who are not themselves the operator of a system listed in the  
  Fidonet nodelist.  
    
  The conference may be made available as read only to all other points and  
  users.  
    
  Moderators who are not Fidonet system operators may send email to  
  mark.lewis@ftn.wpusa.dynip.com with a subject line indicating that the  
  message is requesting write privileges in this conference. Parties  
  requesting access via email must state which listed Fidonet system they  
  will be using to post in the conference, or a point address derived from  
  a listed Fidonet system. When permission to post is approved it will be  
  posted in the echo, and routed netmail sent to the sysop hosting the  
  requester. IF an individual requesting posting privileges is not known  
  to the moderator his/her request will be conveyed to the echo for the  
  purpose of seeking additional information from echo participants.  
    
  The usual rules of Fidonet echomail apply. These include the use of real  
  names, proper displaying of address and other information on messages  
  originating from your system, etc.  
    
  Gateways to/from other networks must be approved by users of the conference.  
  IF approved any gateway must work in both directions. The operator of  
  any approved gate is responsible for all traffic entering the echo  
  through that gateway.  
    
  Moderation issues will be handled by Fidonet netmail only.  
    
  OTher than that, come on in, pull up a chair!  Thanks for participating  
  in the Fidonet echomods conference.
