Yes ad I self started with to have it. The nodes and sysops can then self 
deside of which file echo to get and then the files.
I have sevaral links for both Filegate files and other networks.

I send out with 2mbit and have for some network, as linuxnet and gmsnet about 
15 downlinks, some of them is very slow on polling and getting mail, some have 
now nearly not polled in over a month and is not write a word to me on any 
thing, stopping in a network but just not have their fido system set up right 
to polls all uplinks so they playing around wit their mailer and mail system so 
they forget all uplinks for info and setup to polling and fetch for mail.

  Take care,
            Gert
