Subject: The BBS network and tcp/ip
Hi List
Interesting discussion I must add.
I am about to start up a gateway between packet and the internet her in South
Africa.I
have ascertained that it will need to be Windows based,run AX25 and TCP/IP and
have an
internet connection either byan email inbox or a permanent link.Apart from the
above
are there other ideas the list may have as to what I should offer on the BBS?I
would
like to enable HTML over the BBS but I think that sending a web page of 40k
could break
the packet network to such an extent that it chases hams away from packet as
opposed to
inviting them to join in.
All ideas are welcome wether it be on HDD size or programs to run.I would like
a BBS
that interprets all mail received so as a user I can send a message to the BBS
via
packet or email and ask for help like:
To:BBS
Subject:blank
Body:Help
l>zr6hpc
d
dir
etc
The BBS would process each line in the message body and if it was a 'command'
then it
would act on it.I see this as a good way to bring in new talent to the hobby.
The BBS will probably be started in the middle of next year but I will have to
see how
life treats me.
Looking forward to replies.

Well, I would guess that such a "batch processing facility" would be more
appealing to experienced users (who know what to put in the message) than
to newcomers (who will be frustrated by lots of errormessages when they
type erroneous commands in mails).
Many bbses over here have had a server running for the last couple of years
that does something like this. You give it a mail message that contains
a number of message criteria (like your ">zr6hpc" but a lot more
sophisticated criteria are allowed) and returns you a listing as a mail
message. You can also store your specification in a file on the BBS,
including a list of time-of-day and day-of-week, and it will automatically
prepare the message at those times.
When the BBS is also running bbs-to-smtp gatewaying and/or is forwarding to
local users, the message will appear on your system automatically.
You can reply to the listing message leaving only the lines you find
interesting, and the BBS will mail you those messages using the same
mechanism.
This way, you'll never need to log in to the BBS and cope with the access
channel speed. Just read your listing (which will already be stripped of
junk you are not interested in, because of the criteria you submitted),
tag the messages you think are interesting, and come back an hour later
to find all the messages in your local message box ready-to-read at the
full computer speed.
This system is working very nicely in daily practice. But it is usually
not used by the novices, but by the experienced users who know what they
want to read and no longer get a kick out of seeing 300 messages scroll
by on an L command.

"the network" is just a bunch of people experimenting with whatever
they find interesting. This also varies from location to location,
as some of these experiments are only useful when more than one
station is involved.
When do you call it "general use"?

It has been on my website for years...
