I have been all over the place on this topic... I know D'Bridge has BinkD, I like the mailer and support the Authors efforts... he can't be all that bad because he's Canadian.
My statement was made to someone where I was simply saying.... Take a BBS such as Renegade. the author has made current revisions to it... Run a mailer like D'Bridge, current and under development, and that mailer comes intact with BinkD... Trying to make 30 year old technology work today has it's changes... Why fight it :)
Some years ago I helped a young kid out... I forget his age at the time... he was a pup. Early 90s... I helped him out with FrontDoor setup. Anyway, He wanted to revive his RA board. He played around with Mystic and Synchronet, but chose to go all out on this. So.... he went with RA, and he took my suggestion... or maybe he did this on his own... He uses D'Bridge as a mailer and processes mail through his system easy as pi.
We are blessed as a community to still have people around developing some of the tools we use.
