    Hello Ben,

    * An ongoing debate between Robert Wolfe and All rages on ...
    Hi all! Just thought I would let everyone know that I am still alive
    and kicking. However, it almost seems as if no one is carrying the
    echo any more these days. :(

    Are you familiar with Joe Martin's WC! tosser for fidonet? Wildmail or Viamail
    I forget which. Thought I might upgrade my dial-up WC! to FIDONet access :)

    Joe Martin authored both ViaMail (FTN Mailer/tosser) for Wildcat4 and Searchlight 4/5 and WildMail (Net/Echomail message processor)for Wildcat. There

    were also a number of FTN related utilities. The ViaSoft webpage is still up.

    I ran ViaMail for a time when I also ran Wildcat. Then moved up to WC5. I stayed with WC5 till shortly after Santronics took over.

    Well, contact Joe if you need a WC Tosser, he's actively developing something (according to Allen Prunty) for WC4 or 5 or both {shrug} He sent me the latest ViaSoft package for WC4 awhile back, but I haven't played with it yet :)
