systems like sbbs (aka synchronet bbs) have this built in by default... you only need to configure your domain and the mail server... done deal... users can log in and handle private QWK mail, FTN netmail, or email live on the BBS in a text environment or they can POP3 or IMAP the messages off the system... depending on one's setup, one can even offer the same via an html interface ;)

i'm not saying it is easy but it is a lot easier than it used to be when shoestring and bubble gum were the glue -=B-)

BTW: sbbs comes with WWIV and RENEGADE menus... plus it is very easy to create others based on the operator's desires for their system's user interface...
