gateways are actually BBSs running mailer software compatible with both 
networks as front ends.  If you have a fidonet compatible mailer, you can 
try to FREQ (file request) via fidonet.  Or if you have the site's phone 
number, you can call the BBS and attempt to login as a user.
In my case, if I have a file that someone wants, send me a message and as 
soon as I can I will uu/xxencode it and send it to you.  If I missed the 
gist of your question, let me know and I will try better <grin>
