The working principles of RxGate
--------------------------------
a document for the interested Sysop and validating *ZC
------------------------------------------------------
1) What is RxGate ?
-------------------
RxGate is a 32 Bit OS/2 application especially designed for MultiDomain
gateways.
RxGate works on the Squish or *.msg Message - Base.
The advantage of this approach is, that you can do all gating on Multidomain
gateways in ONE toss-in - gate - scan-out sequences.
With a *.pkt Gateway, you would have to do multiple passes on a MultiGate
Setup.
RxGate is designed especially for multidimensional Gateway Setups.
2) Possible approaches of Setups
--------------------------------
a) One dimensional setup
------------------------
This is a Setup gating echomail from one domain (zone) to the other
and Back.
Example: (Note all Kludges symbolic, to keep it postable)
-------
Echo2 (Zone 2) <--> Echo111 (Zone 111 (othernet))
What happens:
Message is written in Zone 2 (EchoMail)
all kludging is done via FSC-35 Proposal
b) Multidimensional Start - Setup
---------------------------------
This is a Setup gating echomail from one domain (zone) to the many others
and Back. The Gateway is locatet on ONE - Machine
Echo2 (Zone 2) <--> Echo111 (Zone 111 (othernet))
Echo2 (Zone 2) <--> Echo42 (Zone 42 (othernet))
Echo2 (Zone 2) <--> Echo490 (Zone 490 (othernet))
all kludging is done via FSC-35 Proposal except theat the REPLYTO Kludge
is revised on every gating step.
This ensures, that Netmail - Replies can be sent across more then one Domain
Boundary.
When a Netmail - Reply is gated the First time then a Pair of FSC-35 Kludges
is added unless the Editor doesn't do it itself.
Like seen in Echomail the REPLYTO Kludge is revised on every Gating - Step.
Possible Forms of Netmails Via Gateway.

Hello Heinz,
bla bla bla !
Note: The To: Line is added on the First Gating - Process
If The Mail is on the last Destination - Gateway i.e. when The Aka in the
To: Line matches a System - Aka then the mail looks as follows:

Hello Heinz,

In this form there are all FSC-35 Kludges in the Mail, to allow a reply.
A new feature is, that you can send replies to Internet Messages
when Adding a
To: User@Domain.subdomain.id
As long as your friendly Gateway Sysop sets up a Routing like
@Domain.Subdomain 2:2476/2
or thelike RxGate sends this mail happily
to a FTN-UUCP - Gateway without having one on his Machine.
