    I had the idea, but nothing to do about it.

    I am using xfbb here so I do not want to change to other bbs softwares.

    Yes I have had that idea since long time, but its most actual now.

    I am just printing your homepage out so that I can study your stuff this
    evening.

    All that started this was that I am writing with a VE station, and could
    see that
    he is also forwarding packet mails via the internet.

    I would like to try it too. It shall then be the xfbb bbs that shall
    receive this
    forwarding packet mails.

    I have automatic send and fetching of e-mails here from my ISP.

    But I do not know how I do the job to get my ham-bbs in contact with my
    ISP and the
    VE station. But maybe you can help me there ??.

    Anyway thanks for all Richard.
