                           The Random System


     With  the  Random  System,  you  can  define  area-specific sets of
     origins, netnames, tearlines,  templates, usernames and  many other
     items. If more than  one item of each  type is specified, a  random
     one is picked -a Random System. This is a very useful feature  when
     (for  example)   participating  in   conferences  with    different
     languages.

     The Random System is  built on the idea  of "groups". A group  is a
     collection of "items", belonging to  the group. You can assign  one
     or more echomail  areas, designated by  their echoid's to  a group.
     Groups  can  also  be  specified  for  just  a single echo, and DOS
     /4DOS-style wildcards  can be  used to  simplify the  assignment of
     echoes with common strings in  their name, such as *.DK,  SIG.* and
     so on. In this way, you  could for example setup one group  for all
     national  echoes,  another  for  special  local echoes, a third for
     international echoes etc.
