BULLETRON NETWORK MESSAGE ENTRY
First, use the "L" command at the main system prompt to get a list of
those other BBS's (also called NODES) that this BBS will communicate
with. Note the NODE ID of each one.
Next, enter one of the following:
"E ALL" for a public message on the remote system
"E nnnn" for a personal message to account "nnnn" on the remote system
"E SYSOP" for a message to the system operator of the remote system
You will then be asked for the NODE ID. Enter one of the valid ones that
you noted from the "L" command, for example, "ORA68".
NOTE: There is no verification of a remote user account, so if it is
entered incorrectly, then your message will be undeliverable.
The message is then entered, edited and saved just as any other message.
During the next scheduled network transmission, this BBS will transmit your
message to the remote system (NODE).
All messages on the Network Source section are private, but you can
retrieve a message that you sent if you do so before it is transmitted.
When you do a Summary or Read command, you will notice the destination
BBS will be listed in brackets, and if it was forwarded from another
system, the originating system will show. [ORAnnn/ORAnnn] means it was
sent from NODE #nnn and the destination was NODE #nnn.
