Echomail Areas Closing - Reminder #2
====================================
A reminder that the following echomail areas are to be retired and will close down effective 10 May 2023
FSX_ESP              Espanol General Chat
FSX_DIY              D.I.Y Chat, Tips + Tricks
FSX_FOOD             Food + Cooking Chat
FSX_GARDENING        Gardening Chat
FSX_ARTS             Arts + Artistic Chat 
FSX_TRANSPORT        Transportation Chat (All Modes)
FSX_SPORTS           Sports Chat
In their place a new echomail area FSX_LFE has been created. It has a  'Lifestyle' focus and acts as a catch-all for topics including Gardening, DIY, Art, Food, Travel, Transport, Sports etc.
I encourage  sysops to delink and remove from their BBS the echomail
areas that are closing in advance of 10 May 2023. By that date 
all remaining nodes still connected to the retiring echomail areas will be manually delinked from them by your HUB admin.
If you opt to retain the retired echomail areas on your BBS for posterity
after 10 May 2023 that is your call, but please ensure they are set as
'read only' for your users. 
I also encourage fsxNet sysops to look for and subscribe to the new
FSX_LFE echomail area which has now been added to the fsxnet.na file and  created at your fsxNet HUB :)
New Echomail Areas Coming
=========================
Yes, further echomail areas are planned to be added. I will be in touch by separate post with some details in the coming weeks. More to follow :)
This message has been x-posted to FSX_GEN and FSX_NET please post any
further discussion on this topic in FSX_NET
Best, Paul aka Avon
