I'm surprised Fidonet didn't specify UTC (or some USA time zone) for all
of Fidonet, given the ZMH requirement back before continuous mail was
possible.

I ran Fido BBS software, then an Opus CBCS as my first attempts at
running a BBS. I was amazed at how Opus could handle mail calling
during ZMH and regular callers every other time.

It wasn't very long before I discovered FrontDoor and Telegard, which
begat a multi-year effort at creating the One Batch File to rule them
all.
