Hello All!

THe September, 2004 Echolist(ELIST409.ZIP) has been hatched out.


                                  ECHOLIST
                        The International Echolist FAQ

01 SEPTEMEBER 2004                                            ELFAQ409.TXT
|| Notes new or modified information

The Echobase Echolist Robot

Submissions can be made
Via Netmail        Via Email
echolist 1:1/21    echolist@fidonet.us

The Echolist Keeper
Thom LaCosta 1:261/1550     fidonet@fidonet.us

  The echolist is copywritten by Thom LaCosta.

  The Echolist Robot is maintained by Thom LaCosta(1:261/1550,
  fidonet@fidonet.us).

  The Robot is listed in the Fido Nodelist as Echolist 1:1/21

DISTRUPTION OF RESPONSES/WARNINGS TO MODERATORS
   Recent tests indicate that there are no known problems with
   routed netmail from the robot to moderators.

     To insure that robot can send email responses, it is ESSENTIAL
     that all emails to echolist@fidonet.us have the first line in
     the body of the message contain:
     From: Use_your_email_address_here

ECHOLIST QUERIES
    The Echolist Robot can respond to queries and return information
    to the submitting netmail or email address.  Please see
    ECHOBASE.QUE for details.

THIRD PARTY UPDATES
    Moderators wishing to use the service of third parties to submit
    MOD UPD, MOD DEL and MOD RULE messages must notify the Echolist
    Keeper of their intention to use third parties.  The Echolist
    Keeper may hold update messages from third parties if there is
    no confirmation message from the moderator.
    Third party submissions MUST be from the address of the updater.

IDENTIFICATION OF MODERATOR
    All moderator entries in the Echolist database MUST include, as a
    minimum, the name of the moderator and either a Fido Style address
    and/or an email address.  The moderator name can be a person's
    name, or in "official" echoes, the position name of the moderator
    (examples: Echolist Keeper, RC13).

    Terms such as Trustee, Custodian, Emeritus, etc. are not proper
    names, and therefore can not be listed in the moderator dataline.
    These descriptions may be used in a DESC line.


MODIFICATIONS OF LISTINGS BY ECHOLIST KEEPER
    The Echolist Keeper reserves the right to modify information in
    the Echolist database if in the opinion of the Echolist Keeper,
    the information is inaccurate, in question, or not in concert
    with the published Echolist Documents.

    In such instances the Echolist Keeper will make resonable efforts
    to contact the moderator(s) of such echoes to discuss the
    potential changes.

    The Echolist Keeper may indicate in the Echolist that a particular
    listing has been modified or enter other information that reflects
    the nature of the changed listing.

MESSAGE REJECTION

   The reasons for rejection of update messages are listed below, with
   the most common appearing first:

   1. Incorrect Abbreviations - While most abbreviations used with the
   Echolist Robot are accepted, the major difference is the
   TITLE of the echo.  The Echobase Robot expects an abbreviation of
   TITL, rather than TIT .

   2. Insufficient information -
   TAG, TITLe,
   MODerator,
   MODerator Address,
   PASSword and DESC are the minimum requirements.

   3. Incorrect address for Robot - ECHOLIST, ECHOBASE are the only
      "names" that the Echobase Robot recognizes at 1:1/21

   4. Incorrect Moderator Address -
      The correct format for moderator information is
      moderator name, fidonet node number, email address
      While moderator name is madatory, an entry may have a netmail
      address only, or an email address only, but it must have one
      of those addresses.

    5. Incorrect From Address -
       The Echolist Robot senses the  AT  in a from address and makes
       the assumption that it is an email address.  Do NOT use a 
       From: nodenumber AT fidonet, since that is an incomplete email
       address.
       ||If the from address is xxxxxxxx@fidonet.org or xxxxxxxx@fifonet.net,
       ||you must insure that a gateway system is available to deliver the
mail.
    
    6. NOTE: Do NOT use email addresses in the form of your.name AT 1:261/1352
             The Robot will not process the message.

    7. REJECTING MAIL ORIGINATED BY THE ECHOLIST ROBOT
       Messages from addresses that automatically reject mail from the Echolist

       Robot due to configuration on that end and/or mis-identification of 
       Echolist Robot messages, domain names and/or IP addresses will not
       be processed until the system causing these problems contacts the
       Echolist Keeper and indicates that problems have been rectified.  Any
       lost of listing due to the these problems is the responsibility of the
       moderator/updater. 

    8. Other Causes for rejection -
        The Echolist Keeper reserves the right to delete and/or
        refuse listings if, in the sole opinion of the Echolist
        Keeper, the message origin does not agree with the sending
        address of the updater.

WEB SITE
    The echolist web site has been moved to:
    http://www.tlchost.net/echolist/
    Visitors to previous sites are redirected to the address above.

    Visitors to the Echolist web site can now submit MOD UPD, MOD DEL,
    MOD RUL and ECHO QUERY messages to the echolist robot via a
    convenient form.

GROUP Keyword
    The GROUP keyword may be used to identify which Fido Zone or
    Network the moderator wishes.  For FidoNet the group keywords
    may be used as follows:
    FID1 - Zone 1       FID2 - Zone 2       FID3 - Zone 3
    FID4 - Zone 4       FID5 - Zone 5       FID6 - Zone 6
    FIDO - All Zones
    Note: The GROUP keyword has a maximum length of 4 characters

EMAIL SUBMISSIONS
    The echolist Robot now uses echolist@fidonet.us for
    submissions and queries.
    The ISP that provides service for the Echolist may,
    in certain circumstances, reject mail from dial up
    connections with dynamic domain names.

MULTIPLE SUBMISSIONS
    In some instances the echolist robot does NOT process multiple
    messages from the same moderator correctly.  It is STRONGLY
    suggested that moderators send a MOD QUERY message to the robot
    to ascertain the correctness of their listing(s).

RULES SUBMISSIONS - IMPORTANT CHANGE
    To insure proper submission of rules files, the rules text MUST
    be incorporated in the body of the message to the Echolist Robot,
    rather than as a file attachment.  The message should be
    addressed to:
    echolist 1:1/21
    subject: MOD RUL
    The text of the message MUST begin with:
    TAG the_tag_name
    PASSword the_echo_tag_password
    RULEText Rules for area the_tag_name
    Text line of Rules
    next line of rule

    NOTE: The ECHOMOD application produces the MOD RUL messages in
          the proper format.

RULES FILES VIA INTERNET

   Rules files may be submitted to the Echolist Robot as a
   standard MOD RUL message.


FAULTY SUBMISSIONS
    Please insure that there are NO extra spaces or tabs between the
    keyword and the text in your submission messages.  The robot will
    NOT process them.

ECHOLIST Area
    The ECHOLIST echo is now a Read-Only Area.  It is reserved for
    announcements from the Robot or the Echolist Keeper.  Discussions
    and questions can be posted in the ELIST echo.

ECHOLIST CONTENT
    The echolist is designed to publish current information relative
    to echo conferences as provided by moderators.  Moderators are
    urged to submit information for inclusion in the Echolist
    database.

    The intent of the Echolist is to provide information submitted
    by moderators about echoes for which they have responsibility.

EXPIRATION WARNING MESSAGES
    Expiration Warning messages are generated on a monthly basis.
    They are netmailed to the address shown for the moderator if the
    last updated field in the database is 150 or more days older than
    the system date when the function is invoked.  A list of
    conferences for which warning messages have been generated is
    posted in the Fido ECHOLIST and ELIST echoes, and such other
    echoes as the Echolist Keeper feels will provide wide coverage.

   The following information details changes to the echobase software
   and other items of interest to Echolist users.

NON FIDO(OTHERNETS SUBMISSIONS)
    The Echobase Robot accepts submissions from non-Fido addressed
    moderators.  The response messages are placed on hold at
    1:261/1352  Messages on hold will be held for a maximum of 2
    weeks.  Moderators from Othernets are responsible for polling
    to get their confirmation messages.

SUBMISSIONS VIA EMAIL
    The Echobase Robot and a companion application authored by
    Thom LaCosta process incoming email messages sent to
    echolist@fidonet.us, a gateway system hosted by 1:261/1352

    The email messages should be in the form of a netmail submitted
    message, with the requirement that the first line of the
    email text body contains
    FROM the_email_address
    TAG  the echotag
    The remainder of the lines can be in any order.

    A sample submission message is included in ECHOBASE.HLP

ANNOUNCEMENTS
    Echo announcements from the Echobase Robot are presently posted
    in the ECHOLIST echo.  Discussions pertaining to the Echolist
    and the software in use may be made in ELIST.

SUBMISSION TOOL
    A companion application, designed to assist in automating
    moderator submissions to the Echolist Robot at 1:1/21, and other
    robots using the same submission criteria is available for File
    Request at 1:261/1352 with the magic name of ECHOMOD.
    The file can also be acquired via the Internet at
    http://www.tlchost.net/echolist

WORLD WIDE WEB
    A webpage specializing in the Robot and associated matters may be
    accessed at http://www.tlchost.net/echolist/
    Visitors may download EMOD331.ZIP, ECHOHELP.ZIP and view sample
    Echolists in HTML format, a sample .na file, and view a help file
    designed for moderators wishing to make submissions to the
    Echobase Robot.  The web page is updated with each publication of
    the Echolist.

HELP FILES
    For the convenience of moderators, the help file is included in the
    distribution of the Echolist.

QUESTIONS
    Questions about the echolist, echotags, lost passwords, missing
    moderators and disputes should be addressed to the Echolist
    Keeper, Thom LaCosta  1:261/1550 or via email to
    fidonet@fidonet.us

DATE SENSITIVE MATERIAL

CHANGE IN EMAIL ADDRESSES
In June, 2004 the echolist email address was changed to
echolist@fidonet.us and the email of the Echolist Keeper is now
fidonet@fidonet.us

SOME BAD DATES IN JANUARY 2003
Due to a hardware error, the Echolist Robot was using dates in
2002 instead of 2003 from January 3, 2003 through January 10, 2003.
Between MODerator UPDates resubmitted and editing of the database,
it appears that all information in the database is correct.

Echoes deleted and relisted by other than the moderator are subject
to return to the original moderator if deemed appropriate by the
Echolist Keeper.

ECHOLIST HISTORY FILE RESTORED
     The history file used to produce various Echolist Reports was
     restored for the July, 2002 issue.

ECHOLIST HISTORY FILE CORRUPT - April, 2002
     The history file used to produce various Echolist reports was
     corrupted sometime in the first week or April, 2002.  Thus, many
     of the monthly reports are missing.  Please consult the master
     Echolist which contains accurate information

ECHOLIST SYSTEM CRASH
     Subsequent to the the creation of the Echolist in October,
     1:261/1352 suffered a TOTAL system crash.  All MODerator UPDate,
     MODerator DELete messages, ECHOlist QUERIES and rules
     submissions that were submitted on or after October 1, 2001
     (10/01/2001) were lost.

     The ECHOLIST Database was last backed up on OCTOBER 30, 2001
     (09/30/2001) when ELIST110.ZIP was created.

ECHOLIST SYSTEM RESUMES OPERATION
     The Echolist system resumed operation on October 28, 2001
     (10/28/2001)

     When the ECHOLIST system resumed operations on October 28, 2001
     it received both netmail and email messages that were on hold
     at the respective uplinks.  These messages will be processed in
     the month of DECEMBER, 2001.

     It is important to note that many messages that were sent via
     Crash Netmail and/or email may not be in either the database or
     in the messages due to be processed.

     Moderators who made submissions between October 1, 2001 and
     October 28, 2001 are urged to resubmit their updates to 1:1/21
     or via email to echolist@fidonet.us

     Affected moderators should also submit the response from the
     Echolist Robot to them to the Echolist Keeper at 1:261/1352 or
     ||via email to echolist AT tlchost.net

     Should a conflict in listings occur, the Echolist Keeper will
     use message dates and confirmation messages as a tool to
     determine the most correct updates.

NAME CHANGE
    Effective MAY, 2001 The Echolist has been renamed
    The International Echolist to more accurately reflect the
    international nature of its contents.
