Like who %can use them, what nets can they reach, or the maximum size of a single %message? And what's David Dodell's net address? Is he castle.fidonet.org %when viewed from the other size of things? There is a policy agreement for the operation of these nodes, but I do not have a copy yet. David Dodell's address is in the nodelist I am sure. I do not know it off of the top of my head. Unless I am told otherwise, you can send netmail (host-routed please - I am not CM) to me and I will automatically put it into UUCP. Mail coming from UUCP will automatically be routed through the correct gateway into FidoNet. Tell me where you are and I can recommend a closer gateway too.

But I suspect others in this Echo would appreciate seeing a list of gateways thru which they could route mail to BITNET, the Internet, and UUCP. Can you dig this nodelist up and post it here?
