[comp.sys.amiga] fidonet

I have heard that there is a way to send messages to fidonet thru internet that
is similar to the way that messages can be sent to compuserve.  Does anyone know
how this is done?

  Okay.. I'm trying to set up my amiga to be a node off of FIDONet. I
need to be able to recieve mail from two separate feeds (one for a
USENET gateway, and the other for the regular fido mail).  I have the
following programs:
    Juliet, Fastpoint, ConfMail, Chameleon, TrapDoor(which I can't use
for a node), welmat, and ommm.   I would like to go with Chameleon and
welmat, but I don't have the foggiest idea of how to let my system know
which system I'm getting my feeds from.  

    Also, I don't have a parselist program.. if anyone has one, could you
email it to me? (contact me first...)

    Does anyone know what is involved in getting this set up?  (my usenet
messages will look like fidonet messages to my system.. so that's not a
problem).  Any help will be appreciated.

This you will only need it you have to run with a Nodelist.

Very much so - I'm quite involved with the Fidonet Side of networking.  If you
would like further information on any of the mentioned programs, just send me
a Message.  If you would like to contact the author of Welmat for help,
he is at mcr@julie.UUCP (fts1!julie!mcr).  If you would like to get ahold
of the author of Juliet, he's at ggk@tirith.Atronx.UUCP (fts1!atronx!tirith!ggk)

To be truthful, I have no idea!  Obviously, if you have received this, I
just used "mikeb@uts.amdahl.com", your net address.  Hope this helped.
