Let me try further clarifcation: when FTS-1 (FSC-1) was first written, there was only one type of FidoNet message: the one-to-one private message that we now call "netmail". It wasn't until the invention described in FTS-4 that one-to-many messages (then called "conference mail", but now commonly called "echomail") was introduced. So every reference to a "message" in FTS-1 is implicitly a reference to a "netmail message". There's no mention of "netmail" or "echomail" in FTS-1 because there these terms were not in use when originally written since there was no need to disambiguate between one-to-one and one-to-many FidoNet messages. Only the former existed... until "conference mail" (and FTS-4) came along. FSC/FTS-1 was likely formalized and published some time after conference mail (echomail) was introduced and commonplace, but the orgins and chronological evolution of FidoNet was maintained in the incremental numbering and increasing comprehensiveness of the published specs. FTS-1 isn't supposed to paint the complete picture of FTN, just the foundation (with some extraneous, some now-obsolete, details thrown in for historic context). -- digital man (rob)
