Perhaps. ;) I think "posted from tg BBS" would be better, because Stas' tosser converts Telegram's format to something FTN can understand. Technically, the messages dead-end at Stas' BBS system. He merely uses the Telegram resources like a VPS, and all we have to do is use the Telegram app to read the material. -- ../|ug --- OpenXP 5.0.48 * Origin: ----------Do Not Fold, Spindle or Mutilate.---------- (2:221/1.58) .
