+FIDOGATE is a Fido-Internet gateway and a Fido tosser. It is placed under
+the GNU General Public License, see COPYING for details.
+
+The gateway converts between the worlds of Fido NetMail/EchoMail (or FTNs,
+Fido Technology Networks in general) and the UNIX mail/news system.
+FIDOGATE will convert Fido mail packets to RFC822/1036-style messages and
+vice versa.
+
+FIDOGATE also includes a complete FIDO mail processor (NetMail/EchoMail
+scanner and tosser), an FTN-FTN gateway (NetMail only), a file processor
+(TIC file areas) and an Areafix/Filefix.
