If it involves mail networking of a BBS, yes, it is a BBS topic.

Okay, let's start here: are you wanting to run a BBS or a standalone hub
system?  I'd recommend if you're not using a BBS to use binkd (the original
version).  I haven't used straight binkd myself as I use Internet Rex/2 but
there are others here who have and do who can help.

From there, you'd need to learn how each of your networks run their
operations and set up yours likewise.

When I started Micronet from scratch, I was and am running Maximus/2 for my
BBS, Internet Rex/2 for my main mail setup for BinkD/FTP connects, and
Squish/2 for my mail tosser.

Later,
Sean
