    Hi Brother,
    ...Greets from my Telegram app!


    Hello Stas, @BroRabbit

    I've been testing my address that you plant in @RFC-Reply-To: 1223717052@f256.n460.z2.fidonet.org ..but it does not seem to work.

    I registered the address as per the instructions at http://gate.fidonet.org.ua/ ..and got the confirmation online, (and only used plain-text as required), but my test emails don't arrive to the Fido2telebot on my Telegram.

    Just thought I'd mention it incase there is a glitch with the bot?

    Ciao!

    I wrote to Pavel, the gatemaster. He hasn't answered yet. These are the features of his gate operation.

    Have nice nights.

    Hello Stas!

    I wrote to Pavel, the gatemaster. He hasn't answered yet. These are the features of his gate operation.

    Thanks for doing that. I was just curious to see the mechanism
    work.

    OR.. perhaps you would consider a %UserProfile setting to change
    the default:

    @RFC-Reply-To: 1223717052@f256.n460.z2.fidonet.org

    ..to something that the user would prefer? :D

    Not sure what considerations you would need to make so as to
    avoid abuse when giving free-reign to enter a gateway address,
    but if @f###.n##.z#.fidonet.org isn't going to work, then I'd
    rather have an @f###.n###.z#.fidonet.fi address that does. ;)

    Pavel answered. Now his gate is automatically opened for e-mails to which they wrote from Fido.

    No. I won't do that. Netmail gate is not intended for writing e-mail from Telegram using Fido resources. It is an undocumented feature for advanced users that I did not find it necessary to disable.

    Have nice nights.

    Thanks. A test reply to a message that originally arrived with
    fidonet.org worked fine!

    May fidonet.org live long and prosper - here's hoping that the
    domain registration/hosting never goes wrong. Apparently quite
    a swath of Z2 relies on it.

    Good call. I was getting too excited about the different
    options and how the delivery is knitted together so well.

    When I first "discovered" email back in the late 80's, I had a
    bit of fun routing email through other systems using the !
    method.

    I have direct link to it. ;)

    It is Pavel Gulchouck 2:463/68. As long as his node is working, his gate will work, as well as binkp.net and https://nodehist.fidonet.org.ua/.

    Have nice nights.
