i tried them all and i'd suggest synchronet.
the rest have issues.
for bbs softwares theres:
bbbs
vadv
wwiv
mystic
citadel
and many more. it's all about your preference.
try them out.
you can even run an older one that doesn't have a telnet server
by using dosbox or a telnet server like gameserv or synchronet with a script to run your bbs as a door.
