+To send a FidoNet File Request netmail from within Synchronet, the user needs to either be a sysop or have the ''F'' [[access:exemptions|exemption]]. The file-requesting user then uses ''FR:<filename>'' as the subject of the netmail message and send it to ''user@<ftn-address>'', e.g. using the ''N'' command from the e-mail section/menu.

+This reminder of this page describes how to create a FTN style FREQ (FileREQ) and send it to a destination system. There are at least two methods this can be done with. Currently we will describe only one of those methods.

-This page describes how to create a FTN style FREQ (FileREQ) and send it to a destination system. There are at least two methods this can be done with. Currently we will describe only one of those methods.
 The first step is to create a .req (REQuest) file. This file contains the filenames of the files you are requesting, one filename per line.
