GIGO does NOT read your message bases, nor will it touch them. GIGO only understands .PKT files that your echomail and netmail processors create. It will convert these packets into format ready for sending and processing by your UUCP host. For Fidonet bound mail, GIGO will take the mail bundles received from your host system and process them into .PKT files for your mail tosser to distribute. Instead, he has put the source code online for anyone to download and use and has also provided a web-based key generator for anyone who has not registered GIGO to be able to use it.
Details are at the web site.
You can download the GIGO source code via HTTP or via FTP . Internet Rex is a tool for BBS sysops to transfer netmail over the Internet. Its main goal is to provide an easy to use yet very flexible way to get mail from one BBS to another using the Internet's services. If your Fidonet node is one classified as a Hub Coordinator, Net Coordinator, Region Coordinator, Zone Coordinator, or International Coordinator, you will need a program to create and update the segment of the nodelist that you are responsible for. Make Nodelist, v2.51 is just such a program.
