    But maybe I'm missing the "fidonet echo flag" for the qwk sub-board; I figured out the Gate Between Net Types but have not been able to post back into area. Maybe that is my mistake.

    The sub-board would to be configured for FidoNet networking, correct.

    Thanks for responding in the sports area. don't know why or how I posted to sports :-)

    I responded to this in the sports area on my non-synchronet bbs but, yes,
    my recollection is that leaving the 'yes' off of the 'fidonet echomail'
    option will cause synchronet to "reject" any FTN traffic in that echo. I learned that by accident. ;) I think that could fix your issue.
