As a reminder, ALL Sunrise Door Software Home-PC and BBS Door products
have been released as Freeware/Donationware. Everything you need to take
advantage of the Freeware/Donationware products can be found here
(http://sunrisedoors.com).

BE SURE TO TAKE NOTE OF OUR 20% COUPON AT THE END OF THIS NEWSLETTER!!!

------------------
BBS DOORS
------------------
A large collection of 16-Bit products that work on any BBS software
platform capable of running Door programs. In addition, we have a
product line of 32-Bit products made specifically for the WINServer BBS
platform.

[NEW] All product installation files, 16-Bit and WINServer, have been
cleaned up and re-packaged using new installation software. The
installation will no longer add entries into the add/remove list and
will group all products under one group entry in the Start Menu (Sunrise
Door Software 16-Bit or Sunrise Door Software WINServer) as well as the
removal of outdated and no longer relevant files from the archives
themselves.

---------------------------
PC-HOME EDITION
---------------------------
If you are familiar with our BBS Door products and may not be running
your BBS software any longer OR you have played our games on a BBS that
is no longer in service, the PC-HOME EDITION products could be the
answer as they play exactly as their BBS equivalents and they run on any
Windows PC.

[NEW] All Home Edition product installation files have been cleaned up
and re-packaged using new installation software. The installation will
no longer add entries into the add/remove list and will group all
products under one group entry in the Start Menu (Sunrise Doors Home-PC)
as well as the removal of outdated and no longer relevant files from the
archives themselves.

---------------------
COMPETITION
---------------------
We invite you to participate in our Sunrise International Competition
using either our BBS Door (InterBBS) or Home Edition (InterHOME)
products. Competition is the exchange of player score files between the
BBS or Home Edition versions and our International HUB (Sunrise Door
Software). This provides the competition your BBS may not currently
provide OR enhances your existing competition and also allowing you to
participate if you are running our PC-based Home Edition versions.. You
can find information about Competition by visiting our Web site
(http://sunrisedoors.com), choosing the COMPETITION tab on the main menu
at top of any page and reviewing all menu options.

[Note] BBS competition players are limited to playing a set number of
games per day. Those players using the Home-PC versions can play an
unlimited number of games per day and can play under an unlimited number
of names. However, be aware that EVERYONE can only play up to the SAME
number of games per MONTH! So grab the Home-PC versions and play in the
same competition with all of its perceived "advantages" <wink smiley>

------------------------------
PRODUCTS WE USE
------------------------------
We have added a list of products we use for our Web site as well as a
list of Cloud storage products that we use for off-site storage. We
recommend all of the products (we do not get any remunerations, aka:
kickbacks) and they can be found here (http://sunrisedoors.com) !

--------------------------------------
BBS PRODUCT AUTHORS
--------------------------------------
If you are, or know of someone that is, a BBS Products Author (Doors,
BBS-related software) that has made the decision to no longer make their
products available to the BBS community, please contact us via our
support ticket system
(http://sunrisedoors.com/supportticket.php). I would be more than happy
to acquire the products and make them available under the same concept
being used for the Sunrise Door Software products.

I'd like to point out that the link you provided there does NOT work...

http://www.sunrisedoors.com does work. Strange that you would not know
that.

NOT strange at all.... what IS strange is that YOUR software is having
trouble recognizing a legit URL

I just figured it out. I'm reading this in the Pan newsreader. For
unknown reasons, the trailing ")" in your URL is included as part of the
URL as seen by Pan. The leading "(" is not included, not sure why.

It may be a bug in Pan, and perhaps other news readers. Putting a space
on each end of the URL after/before the parentheses would fix that, if you
wanted to.

Regards.

Well congratulations on doing some work on your issue after some snide
comments regarding what I should know!!!!

Once again, a goddamn snide remark! Before acting like a putz, perhaps
you should spend some time getting the authors of the software you are
having a problem with, to resolve THEIR problem!

Better yet why not get off your ass and produce an alternate newsreader!
Oh that's right you can't.

In all the years I have posted my URL all over the internet, I have
never heard from anyone about problems getting it to work or received
any requests to change how it was posted.

In case you missed the intent of this reply, it is to make it very clear
to you that your issue is YOURS to get resolved, NOT MINE!!!!! So go
annoy someone who gives a shit!

Well aren't you a hostile little prick. There was nothing "snide" in my
remark there above.
