Hello Robert,

RW> You went from QWK networking to regular QWK in this reply :)

How do you mean?

RW> If he wants to be a node, he might be interested in FidoQWK, which
RW> converts QWK packet to PKT files and vice versa.  He would still need
RW> and FTN echomail processor.

I've never heard of that but it might solve the issue.

RW> Why not give SearchLight a try with the Valence QWK mail door, which
RW> allows for both QWK hubbing as well as for tossing and scanning
RW> net-status QWK hubs :)

Is Valence the door that William McBrine wrote? Looks interesting but I know
nothing about SearchLight so my best bet is that is not going to happen.

Is searchLight still supported/updated/registerable?
