Ok, so you wanna echo PlanoNet? A few rules....

  Currently, this net supports most QWK based echomail software,
  including Rnet, Qnet, Tnet, and more! We also have hubs that will
  echo the mail via a mailer such as FrontDoor, via Fido technology.
  Please see PLANONET.FTS for a list of area names.

   1. No profanity or personal attacks in any conference, other than
      LUNATICS, where anything goes. By the way, the LUNATICS conference
      is restricted to those callers 18 years old, and older! :>

   2. Stay on topic for the conference you are in, so that everyone may
      fully enjoy the focus of the conference

   3. As these conferences are echoed, refrain from over-quoting and
      give the sysops who echo these conferences a break.

   4. REAL SOUNDING NAMES ONLY! No handles please.... No one wants to
      message with DOCTOR DEATH...

   5. All PlanoNet sysops and conference hosts are required to carry,
      and at least read in YA mode, the ADMIN and TALK2ADMIN
      conferences.

   6. HUBS are required to call into The Fringe once a day, while nodes
      may call into their respective hubs NO LESS than every other day.
      We want to keep the mail moving, right?

   7. All PlanoNet Hubs and Nodes are required to run the CHECKREP
      utilities, included in CHECKREP.ZIP in this info file.

   8. Nothing illegal is desired, requested, or allowed!


                     ********SPECIAL NOTE*************

     The ADMIN and TALK2ADMIN conferences are the only two required
     conferences, and require special attention on your part. ADMIN is
     for PlanoNet sysops and PlanoNet Hosts only! The TALK2ADMIN conference
     should be open to all, but all mail in this conference on your board
     must be forced private. Here's how to do it with PCBoard:


 Conference Name  (#625)     : P-Talk2Admin

 Auto-Rejoin into this Conf.     : N   Additi
 Allow Viewing Conf. Members     : N   Additi
 Make All Uploads Private        : N   Level
 Make All Messages Private       : Y   Level

     Here's how you set up RNET so that private mail is exported:

  CONF=625,260:0 PVT

     Or since PlanoNet supports private mail in all echoes:

  DEFAULTFLAGS=PUBLIC PRIVATE

   That's it!! Explore the conferences, and as always, ENJOY!!
