When I had Synchronet up and running I had htick tossing the files into
Synchronets file areas and then import the files.bbs with addfiles.

That relies on htick having access to your Synchronet directories though
and I don't know if that is so.

There were OS/2 files for this, I used to use them with Maximus but I
haven't seen anything like that for linux. If there isn't something like
that already it'd make a nice addition to the husky project though.. :)
