why not have allfix post the announcements to a PKT and then import that like
any other echomail? generally this is done via a local inbound directory where
tools that post like this can put their PKTs... before the age of secure and
insecure inbounds, it was called a "secure" directory because you knew which
programs were allowed to write to them... i don't know what they might be
called today... i'm also not aware of sbbsecho having such a directory... it
might work just fine to point allfix to your normal secure inbound unless
sbbsecho will gripe about a PKT from your address to your address... if it
does, rob might be willing to add an additional directory entry with slightly
relaxes rules to sbbsecho and echocfg...
