Here's the latest one I received with needed retractions:

==
Hello, this is Will Milberger from Kurten, Texas
and I am requesting a node number for zone 618 in Micronet.

My system is Dark Matter BBS at darkmatt.synchro.net.

I am using Synchronet-Linux v3.20a with SBBSecho and BinkIT.

My requested AreaFix password is:
My requested BinkP Session password is:
My requested TIC Password is:

I will be using 'Type-2+' (FSC-39) packets with no password.
Uncompressed or PKZIP-archived EchoMail bundles will work fine.

All of the emails are identical save for the obvious.  When I send a replky
back that they need to read the infopack and fill out the node app, I never
hear back.  I think it maybe beyond their capability do follow instructions.
