    It would appear to be so, but Wv intended to "reply" to a previous message (but
    did not actually do a R)eply on Telegram, so therefore is not REPLYID associated with it). All he did was use a basic smiley, and Telegram apparently took the liberty to convert it to one of its own versions - on the DT app it animates! - but on the phone app, it looks normal.

    Yeah, reply on the Telegram is easy to miss. And can look odd on the Fido

    Gate seems to hold negative connotations with some sysops. The

    Actually, the Telegram Groups are the BBS. the Bot is a mailer/tosser that converts from Telegram-speak to Fido-speak.

    Or at least that's how Stas has always explained it.

    In fact, it is very convenient to use the resources of Telegram servers for this. ;)

    That is excellent. The app is not much different then using

    the bbs is hosted on the cloud or VPS, then the combination
    looks very much like what the Telegram arrangement is.

    Stas has merely learned to leverage the Telegram servers (or
    its VPS) for establishing a BBS-like environment for messaging
    and building a custom tosser/scanner to accomplish the merging
    with FTN.


    Too late to change folks perception that have already
    made up their minds about it unfortunately.

    We can just refuse to use the term gate when refering to it.

    I still think that naming it gating covers it better

    Then you can say that converting JAM/Squish/MSG bases is
    "gating" to FTN.

    In this case, the messages on Telegram servers is in Telegram
    format. The public API allows Stas to build a tosser/scanner
    that understands that format. That's not much different than
    a sysop using whatever tosser/scanner that can work with Jam/
    Squish/MSG.

    Meanwhile, we use the Telegram app as a client that is not
    much different than using an nntp, telnet, or ssh client.

    You aren't creating an account on Stas's BBS. You are
    creating an account on Telegram. Stas's BBS acts as a
    Hub or Feed for the Telegram BBS.

    In fact, it is very convenient to use the resources of
    Telegram servers for this. ;)The BBS itself, in fact,
    works only as a tosser, although user lists are
    maintained and, in a case, I can disconnect any Telegram
    user from Fido.

    Telegram is a moderator's dream. It is easy to block a user.
    That user can't really circumvent that unless they manage to
    acquire a new phone number for registration and hide behind a
    new name.

    In Fidonet, a persona non-grata can always find another BBS to
    get around a banishment.

    Can I send a netmail via FTN to a Telegram user? That

    Look for the TGUID in the kludges. Address the netmail to
    TGUID@2:460/58, or according to the info provided in the
    REPLYID kludge.


    ..but I'm not sure if it's worth
    coming up with a new term if gating mostly fits.

    Client/server is the term that fits. ;)

    If/when Stas decides to release his bot to the public, there is the potential for more of these systems to come into being.

    Because nothing ever went awry by releasing bots into the public. Skynet?
