I was going to recommend SemPoint.  I'm glad you were able to discover it. 
I have used it since 1992 (I think).  As you discovered, it handles QWK
packet messages like a database.  You never have to worry about managing
individual packets.  I use it in "Fidonet" mode by fetching
actual fido-type packets from a fido "feed".  

I had a little trouble setting it up on an XP machine for a relative, but
it works just fine and reliably on my WinME machine.  What Windows version
are  you using it with?  It should have no trouble in Win98/SE

It's loaded with features that I have not fully explored yet!  But if you
have any questions, maybe I can help.
