Hello, Matt.

If you're wanting that, use Telegard as there is a patch for the Blue Wave
(proper spelling) door that will make it Y2K compliant.  QWKE is poorly
supported; the only programs that I know of that support it are OLMS2000
and MultiMail and those two programs are still in common use.

As someone who's run over 40 different BBS packages over the years, I can
tell you that there is /no/ BBS package that is "simpler to
administer".  Every one of them have their quirks and you just have to
learn to work with what you like.

That's why I like Maximus: since the configuration files are text-based,
they are easy to make changes (even "en masse" changes) and even
easier to back up. If there was a total disaster on the BBS, I can install
a stock setup of Maximus and have it working almost immediately.  Of
course, this isn't including all of the custom ANSI screens, custom
scripts, doors setup and filebase setup that I've done, but I think you get
the jist of what I'm saying.

Later,
Sean
