  • New echo

    From Rick Smith@1:340/202.1 to All on Wed Jul 29 11:22:28 2020
    Greetings All!


    Does anyone know how I go about suggesting/starting an echo area? I would like
    to see a VM's echo of sorts.

    Just ask your uplink to create the echo area and he must link this to the ZC.

    Just start the echo and see if anyone wants to pick it up from you. A lot of good echoes started that way. Advertise it is ECHO_ADS

    That should have said Advertise it IN ECHO_ADS. I have spell check, now I
    need grammar check.

    You can start your echo in any way you want, and let me know when you add it and you can just use word of mouth.

    that's one method... better is to create it yourself, advertise it, and link others who also want it... eventually, it may be added to a/the backbone... or not...

    and he must link this to the ZC.

    incorrect... ZCs are not mandated to have anything to do with echomail areas or
    distribution...
