Mailer connection??  Or User connection??

As it stands now there is no way, that I know of, to send a user to the BBS
via DOS version of FD.

On the mailer side there might be a way.  I see JoHo, the author of FD
responded back to you... I'd have to go through what he was saying to respond
back... it could be done... This is what I do....

I have 2 fidonet address, Ihave a hub address and a node address.  All my
mail goes to 342/200, my FD/Fashecho/2 OS2 VM, it tosses mail and sends it to
my BBS 342/201

This is the usual way I set up  my mail... not at this oint because I am
working on setting up MysticBBS.

The simplest way to do this is use some of the mailers out there that support
BSO... FD does not currently do this without some work.  If you used the
windows version of Binkleyterm it'll work juat fine... With the use of
sexpots, a program Digital Man wrote, you can have users access the BBS via
that dialup line.

BTW, with JoHo back in the fold there my be a solution inn the works to have
FD work with MysticBBS.

Good Luck!!!
