    Hello, All.

    it would be nice to have it back in newsgroup in the past with requiring email validation just like zone7 russian echos that are in newsgroups but have email validation to prevent spam posts.

    fidonet echos are available via numerous news servers...

    in the past with requiring email validation just like zone7 russian

    there is no zone 7 in fidonet... there never was... that was only wishful thinking and it would have caused a collision with AlterNet which was already using zone 7... these days, there's no zone 5 or 6 in fidonet, either...
