Hey MRO!

At some point, you wrote:

That's quite awhile ago. Here's what he wrote April 8, 2025..

This is a bogus message. It isn't possible for anyone to have address 1:396/4 -
it's not open to the public and has no user interface. 1:396/4 is simply the
address of the stand-alone NewsGate machine.  Anyone posting to the
alt.bbs.synchronet newsgroup would have to post from a FidoNet address and be
linked to my ALT-BBS-SYNCRHONET echo. There'd be a dead giveaway who's posting;
their address would show up in the "+ User FidoNet address" kludge.

This isn't the first time someone has tried to do this crap - it didn't come
from here or I'd have a log of it and could cut that Node off straightaway.
Feel free to post this to the newsgroup if you wish.

Best regards,
Marc

I'm not sure how 'bogus' messages are making their way here via his newsgate, th
ough.
