It really needs curses or ncurses.  I used
http://www.bebits.com/bob/12783/ncurses-5.2.pkg

BeOS seems to be missing some functions that attach.c and dirlist.c use,
but I did manage to get it to build and run by commenting some of the code
out.  I must admit it looked quite nice running inside a Terminal window. 
:-)

You can grab the binary (tested under BeOS/i386 5.0) at
http://blizzard.dnsalias.org/fidonet/timed/timEd-1.11.a4-BeOS.tar.gz

Note that I really didn't spend enough time porting it properly, so it may
crash or freeze, but it seemed to work fine in my limited testing, reading
and writing mail to a Squish base using the internal editor.  When I have
time I may have a closer look at the code and do a proper job of it.
