--------------------------------------------------------
I've decided to write a BBS and Chat (Converse) program specifically
designed to interface to BPQ32. Although there are a number of perfectly
adequate BBS programs about, none interface to BPQ32 particularly
cleanly, and very few are still supported.
My current outline spec follows, but I'd welcome any suggestions on
features you would like to see. The BBS and Chat features will probably
be in the same program, but either may be disabled if not required.
BBS.
Basic Mailbox Functions (handling personal mail and bulletins).
All configuration via dialogs (no files to edit);
MBL/RLI standard forwarding and FBB-compatible compressed forwarding
over ax.25 and netrom.
POP3 and SMTP servers, allowing a standard Internet mail client (e.g.
Outlook) to send messages to, and receive messages from the BBS. This
will initially only accept connections from the local host, but could be
extended (e.g. to accepting connects from the local LAN) if I can be
convinced that it would not be a major security/SPAM risk.
Ability to send locally input messages to an Internet email account, and
receive responses back from the recipient.
Chat Server.
Networked chat/converse node, similar to FastChat, but with named
topics
Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.
