RelayNetとは 意味・読み方・使い方

RelayNet, also known as RIME for RelayNet International Mail Exchange, was an e-mail exchange networking protocol supported by the PCBoard bulletin board system. It was in most respects similar to FidoNet in purpose and technology, although it used names for its nodes instead of Fido's numeric address pairs. Due to it being limited to PCBoard, it carried a much smaller amount of traffic than Fido. RIME was built up, starting in 1988, from a master hub owned by Bonnie Anthony, a local Psychiatrist, in Bethesda, Maryland and a subordinate hub owned by her brother, Howard Belasco, in The Bronx, New York. Bonnie's son, Kip Compton, in high-school at the time, played an important role in the software's development and evolution.
