Merry Christmas Gus et al!

The copy I have is from TAPR, creators of the TNC2. The date watermarked
on the document is 9 November, 2012.

It is only a mission impossible because of laziness only. If those who
needed to communicate together to form set standards, that would be a
major step forward.

There's also REBBS who contributed in establishing the protocols of the
PBBS which is also DOS.

FBB has been maintained for several years under Bernard. There's several
people who contribute code to it - the joys of true open source!

I consider you a great and long time friend as well!

Actually there's 7 total. Don't forget Arctic and Antarctica.

The one thing however that you fail to understand with an xNOS is that
NO NOS is a true PBBS system. The MTA is 100% SMTP based. It is, as you
have mentioned, quite dependent on the rewrite file to translate mail to
that of a true PBBS H-address. Area mail is quite similar to how sendmail
or postfix would write personal emails. Study your sequence.seq file. Ever
notice each individual mail receives *2* numerics? The first one is for the
natural mail message, while the second set of numbers generated are for the
rewritten mail. NOS has been this way since the beginning of it's creation.
JNOS2 is no different. Because of this, without proper rewrite file, .na
can easily be seen as Nambia on the global internet and any xNOS that's on
44-net may quite easily send SMTP based e-mail seen with a .na to Nambia.

...OR a rewrite file is not correct and xNOS is trying to send PBBS mail
over the global internet and by using 4 letter continent coding helps
combat such a problem. A 4-letter continent code helps combat this scenario
and protects a new sysop from accidentally sending 3-rd party mail.
FYI; I received your bulletin under 2 different BIDs:
