Spent sometime browsing through Fidonet last night.    Bumped into a
post advertising the FidoGazette 25th April, 2018 (fgv12n17.zip).   My
memory is fuzzy but I dont think it was possible to download small
attachments from Fidonet msgs, unless theres some functionality from
offline readers ?

Google searching filename seems to turn up alot of dead links,  Im
assuming best source would be the original source BBS advertised
within the signature ?

that link works for me, but the files wont download.
apparently that issue says we should delete facebook even though the
operator of the fidogazette cant serve a simple file archive.


no, there isnt a file attachment feature in fidonet messages

it's odd I can download from that link now from inside a Win 7 32bit
Chrome VM but not on my Win 10 workstation.  :P    Now I can read the
joys of deleting ones FB account! Thanks!
