John Galvin, Garry Paxinos, and Tim Pozar have written a set of programs which tie into Opus/Fido/SEAdog/TBBS BBSs and allow FULL bidirectional mail and news comunication to a Unix host. The UFGATE package allows mail and news TO the pc, FROM the pc and THROUGH the pc to either another Unix or Fido system (or both!) The package integrates with the BBS system and allows the users of the BBS to participate in the Usenet AND Fidonet worlds.
