Keep the Usenet-style data out of the messages. A proper gateway will
be invisible to the Fido side. If this isn't the case, then they have a
reason to complain. I've found that converting the news to email is a
good solution.
Having moderators complain about your system is very bad for both ifmail
and Fido.
