   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.
