Hi! Gaylen,

On Fri, 30 May 14, you wrote to me:

No doubt it is a different science entirely from running FrontDoor, or Irex. 
I know the feeling: I started in early '94 with FrontDoor, alternately using
the commercial & non-commercial versions.  Fortunately, the whole
configuration (including a RemoteAccess BBS) blew itself away in the 'big
bang' of November '98.

During reconstruction, I commenced using BinkleyTerm (and a Mystic BBS,
later).  Binkley gave me the edge I needed to work on a binkD arrangement as
well; since all of my Fidonet links were LD, it made sense to explore an IP
method of exchanging mail & files.  So, there was a time when I was running
both Bink & binkD.  Then I discovered Argus, and later Radius: the best ever
mailer arrangment of its time.

Pray, tell us more of this Trapgate thing.  :)

Cheers,
Paul.
